and again with the birds ...

yesterday's artistic endeavor was at my pottery class ... glazed one enormous bowl, that i imagine i'm donating to an auction ... that's the plan, but best not to plan too hard cause as soon as a piece of pottery is earmarked for something particular, it turns out horrid ....

and five more birds .... i can tell you one of these is pinkish, one yellow, one tangerine, one medium blue ... and i don't recall the other ... probably turquoise ... i generally default to blues shades ... i don't generally prefer them, but i think most people don't want all the orange that i want! in the pic, all the birds look white because, after i underlazed them, i dunked them in clear glaze to make them all shiny and lovely ....

these are on a cart just outside the kiln house, because at the LAST second, i realized i needed to snap a picture .... it was actually a second too late seeing as i'd just toted the big bowl into the kiln house ...

once these are out, i'll be up to ten birds ... not sure if that's enough for christmas gifts or not .... we'll see ...
