Burnt... ouch!



We soiled our hands again at the pottery workshop this year. The works are burnt and all ready for collection! =D

You've just admired some of my Sensei's ( teacher, instructor ) works. Notice those daisy-like motifs on the large vase? Sensei had the petals created by scrapping off the clay from the vase at a minimum depth, and filled the cavities with a different shade of clay. That's some neck-breaking meticulous job, if you don't know how clay works like.

Bear is all ready for the showdown, especially when my work is complete with some regrettable finishes.

He's going to wear that conceited face and predictably say, ' Hey do you know that I'm new to this? '

Ouch!

Oh nevermind. Have a great weekend!! =D

pottery is something that I always want to pick up! Hmmm... If you didn't mention that the daisies are made of different clay, I would've thought that it's painted on the vase!

こんばんわ、スターダストさん
陶芸の趣味、いいですね。
粘土をこねて、形を作って、
釉薬を塗って、焼きを待つ。
そして、すてきな、作品だわ。
花を生けるのに、よさそう。
そして、フクロウは、不苦労ですね。

すてきな、週末。
トマトは、生で食べても、
スパゲッティにしても、おいしそう
もちろん、ハートに賛成 :D

I like the idea of pottery. I like the idea of the squashyness. But not the getting-stuck-on-your-fur-ness.

What wonderful creations of yours! Did you make that owl too? It's really cute :)

Piggy, I'm glad that I've explained in the first place. Hope you'll touch pottery soon.

J.H., actually, I'm not good in any. WAHAHAH!

梅子さん、’不苦労’の教え、ありがとう!いつか、陶芸をやってみませんか。好きなお花を飾ったりして、梅子さんが得意のイケバナを発揮すれば?;)

Bobby, I gotcha... =D

KY, haha, they're all made by Sensei. =P
