I'm typing in green in the hope it will help to sooth me.
I'm soo glad I am able to have some creative times to de-Stress from the nightmare of using computers. Its taken me over an hour to log in to post and attempt to put my new web site on my business card.
But apart from that I've had my hands in some clay and have craft glue all over my fingers :)
So what was the results..........

And Here is the results of an afternoon at pottery club. I'm making bases for photography. So first I build the base using in this case white raku clay. I've added some plant material covered in red raku clay and some bronze dust I've magpied away from my castings at art school. Next i'll need to let the whole thing dry out and of course constantly play with it. Once dry it gets Bisque fired then it's ready to go and visit a darkroom where I'll paint it with some magical emulsion to make it receptive to becoming a photograph. Once that has dried (about another week later I can develop a photo onto it using the old school black and white enlargers and chemical baths :) lots of fun | This is the latest in my photo frame collection. It has been cluttering up my dining room table for well over a week now so its great to see it finished. And Im really pleased with the end product :) I love the old vintage look that has emerged. |
