wintery wares

here's a few things just out of the kiln with a wintery theme...tiny sneak peek at what will be at the Owl this weekend...

here's the mug from previous process post, finished:

another moose mug: white slip trailing on white slip...even though there's no snow here, well there is thick frost some mornings....

a wee white slip platter: who doesn't love bicycling in the winter?! and red berries, green leaves...seasonal hints:

caribou platter: hawthorny leaves, more red berries...

not to worry not everything is ungulates and bicycles (well okay i made LOTS of bicycles of various styles)...bears, herons, salmon, crows, foxes, hummingbirds, rubber boots, umbrellas, trees, etc...
and some new new things with my new new bike cranks and cogs stencils!

new works

while i really should be making mugs, mugs, and more mugs…i have been trying to squeeze in some play time, new stencil images (caribou, foxes, different bikes), some challenges and problem solving, and just some silly decorating.

caribou with a half overdone slip trailed & finger trailed decoration

new cloud bowls

some double dipped mugs

am really enjoying the cloud bowls…. other pieces feeling a bit girly somehow, probably the colour scheme. will think about some darker contrasts, maybe even good old black and white!
