Today my dear friend, Darrel Nelson, came to help me pack my sculptures. I thought it would take 2 days, but with his diligent assistance, it was done in 1 day. What a relief it was! I had worried I would not finish everything for the show, but I now feel ready. Thank you so so much to Darrel and those who supported me. Two more horse pieces are listed today. They were saggar-fired with combustible materials. I like the effect of smokey and tone-down yet richer colors. What do you think?  Little Buddha: Special Delivery for Grandma  I tried to capture pride on the boy's face.  Little Buddha: Moon Rider.  I should not have titled this "Little Buddha," as the man is giant in contrast to the horse.

These are technically beautiful and visually powerful. Great work!

I did not know you check my blog. Thank you for your comment. Saggar-firing in an electric kiln brings out results similar to pit-fire, but I can control the temp more accurately. I saggar-fire all of mine to ∆2 - a lot higher than pit or raku firing temperatures. I bet you want to try that in your studio. Leave a Reply. |
