Recess Time


Spent yesterday walking back and fourth to court downtown. Accedently wandered through a redlight last month. Plead guilty... the fault was mine due to being lost looking for a tow yard that was holding my car that had been stolen earlier in the month.
The up-side of the day was a day of recesses to


spend on getting busy on the surfaces of 4 canisters. Im happy to say it took all day.


Black on black with a clay that is very finicky. It bloats... it cracks...it warps, but its black black black..


It's got enough character to hook me.
I don't know how it'll work out, but all of this is to test a specific process. I still need to smear and rub off a porcelain slip to pull the design up. 


As long as I'm paying through the nose for a significant simple mistake (the fine was $329, down from $469) I'm totally cool with risking a few hours worth of work on a whim and hunch after getting whacked.

    I love this direction. Feeling it deeply, it's beautiful and I can't wait to hold it for a bit!
