Jeffrey Queen bought a Tapa mug from me last year. He requested another one or two. So he gets first choice. I started these because the mugs were drying out after being in plastic bags for a year.

Mug number one.

I start with a blank that I can have fun carving.

After I clean up the mug I carve my name on the bottom.

Then I "sand" it with a wet brush.

Then the fun begins.

The carving and "sanding" with a wet brush is done.

This is fun for me. Glazing these in multiple colors is not enjoyable but when they come out of the kiln they make me happy.

Cheers, Wendy
