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.
