How did they get the legs & feathers to blend properly?
Nubbins & Bob Sawyer have just endorsed Andrew Cuomo despite living out of state.
Oh hello.

Here is Skull Vessel 4 for which i am most pleased. The bottom isn’t as blue as I imagined so i will experiment w/ some underglaze or a glaze underneath.

I’ll be doing more of these adding an art deco rib cage 🩻.

Materials used are in the alt text.

O hai, me again.

Skull Vessel 4.
I went with a fancy interlocking jaw and tongue lid.
For the glazing i used stuff I haven’t tried before, so this should be fun because who needs test tiles - not me. (lol)
O hai,

Here is Skull Vessel 3.

Was supposed to fade from orange to turquoise. I used a light flux to achieve drip, but it didn’t turn out as I expected (first time). Next time I’ll just do the fade manually with layers.

Sorry to hear about you, too.
Thankfully I’ve only caught covid once ( i mask up indoors) hopefully you will feel better soon.

I’d say the only benefit to me being sick was dropping 15 lbs in a month and a half. Just can’t keep food down.

Skull vases up soon! I’m pretty happy with the glazes.
Thank you!
Seeing doc this Wednesday. ✨

I’ll post them very soon!

Being autistic in a capitalist world means you’re constantly asked to prove your humanity by performing productivity.

And then they wonder why we burn out.
Scrolling through #Caturday and only liking cat pics with ALT text.
O hai

Trying out some more adventurous glazing. I typically just focus on underglaze, because i can safely predict the final results. But glazing is like alchemy, and the final results can be a surprise.

Here is skull vessel 2.
Orange to turquoise ombré.

Kat is being federally charged by the FBI for protesting at Broadview.

This is a flagrant political prosecution by the Trump administration, which is trying to prevent free speech and free association.

I am proud of Kat. Her movement is being targeted by the government. She needs your support.
I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

Concerns around IP usages in fandom promotions feel made up when the US government is promoting joining Ice with generative AI Halo assets.

Um, well first of all ERMAGERD.
And also -hell yes.

(I follow terrarium creators on the YouTubes)
And definitely start doing fancy underglaze painting!
Oh yes my Bella does that too.
They definitely rely on smell.

My favorite is when they find a really, really good smell and do that weird flehmen response thing with the open mouth and goofy face.
I’m sorry that happens to you, I can relate to that, although it’s my palm cramping up from pressing too hard with pen and ink. And i have to stop.

I do enjoy doing ceramics more than illustrating now. Although I obviously still have to illustrate for my job.
O hai,

Been really sick for a month and getting a lot of rest. So my studio time has been limited and it’s driving me nuts.

Anywho, here’s what’s in the queue. Two skull vessels made with Red Sculpture Clay 108.

Doing some new, fancy glazing on these!
