The first weekend of Summer

Cinder was up for the weekend. Quite wonderful! We laughed & cooked, we shopped & we got to play with clay. We decided to make mobiles. My theme, of course, was parietal.

Cinder experimented with slips and oxides. I have always loved her line drawings and water colors. I love seeing what she came up with using clay for her canvas.
We should have some interesting results after bisque and glazing. Thanks, Sis, for a first weekend of Summer shared!

I had a great teacher too. Can't wait to see the results- am already putting them together in my head. xxxooo

Ahhhh, the contagious clay bug. :)
No teacher here. You found your own joy & voice, as witnessed by how you are envisioning the final piece. I look forward to sitting on your deck and enjoying the beauty of it! Bravo!

Those look great. Did you apply the oxides dry or mixed with water? I like the look of these mini canvases.

Max, it would be GREAT to borrow your trays! Thanks! Looking forward to hearing about the trip to the brick factory!

Linda, thank you! The oxides were mixed with water.
