I hope they may make it into the gallery exhibit that opens in 2 weeks at the Black Mountain Center for the Arts, of student and teacher's clay work. The theme is public knowledge...A Tea Party.
One of my pots is a Mad Hatter. I have offered some pictures of him for press releases by BMCA. (I think you already saw him before he was glazed, or even bisque fired.) Anyway, I promise to let you see him as soon as the gallery exhibit opens.
I already showed you the Dormouse Teapot a couple of days ago, who does meet qualifications for the Tea Party..
I have another piece which I think looks like a small marble sculpture, though it's just a figure modeled and glazed with Satin White glaze. She isn't part of a Tea Party theme, so may not make it in this gallery exhibit. I think she's the best sculpted figure I've made yet. I want to consider her art and wait till she can be in a gallery, rather than having her on a sales table with functional pieces.
So she's hidden away until she has an appropriate opportunity. That doesn't mean I won't let you see her sooner or later!
Today I worked on buttons again, and snowflakes. I got a bit flaky and made a Yin/Yang symbol, and a rose, just playing around with the silhouettes that cutting flat shapes provided.
You've captured the folds in your sculpture's gown beautifully - look forward to seeing the rest of her.
ReplyDeleteHidden pots - very exciting. I'm sure they will be accepted into the exhibit :)
egad, what surprises!
ReplyDeletelove that satin glaze, hope your hidden pieces are successful, they are all art.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see the finished mad hatter! The glaze on your figure does look like marble - just beautiful!
