the tight squeeze

well ive been working hard lately and had to work even harder this morning to fit all my goodies into a bisque firing! i told dnaiel id squeeze a few of his in, and luckily they are small and fit between my cups :). All these, plus more, will be getting glazed and fired the first day back at uni, as im off home for work and a break for all of next week. They will be out in perfect time for my Project progressive assessment on the wednesday!

ill definatley be putting up some pics...

enjoy the rest of your weekend! x

saucier and saucier!

well since my progressive assessment a week or so ago ive been working on making some saucers to go with my plethora of cups. i made some complicated 2- piece moulds but they turned out to be too fidley to be practical and just werent working for me, and thankfully after some testing it turns out that a dodgy one-piece mould of the reflection of the inside of the cup is the best thing for the job!

even though we are on 'holidays' my little studio buddy Daniel and i have still been hard at it, Daniel creates some amazing forms, you can check him out here...
