What is going on... Revisited...
Some of the greenware that is in the bisque kiln right now... and now I have the chocolate clay going on in wet next to wet white at the same time... DANGER of contamination Will Rodgers!!!!
This new work is focused on sculptural form and there are subtle things I am trying to "say"...
No protests... but feelings and relationship stuff...
It is ok with me if I am talking to myself right now...
It is OK...

WHAT IF....
Artist/ Creatives...
Some interesting questions came up and I am very curious what your answers are...
IF money was not an issue...(to support you, etc)...
What would your art be like?
Would you continue to make art?
Would it change your focus?
What drives you to make your art?
ANY AND ALL ANSWERS are very appreciated...
I may share in an upcoming (anonymous) blog post...
You can message me directly if uncomfortable with this forum.
This gentleman comes to mind...

More of What's Happening in the Studio
My studio is all cleaned up to switch to my TAN STONEWARE THAT I DO LOVE to work with...





PLEASE note that the white(porcelain) bisqued ware that cracked in the firing...
Grrr...
An issue of drying too quickly or maybe the porcelain is not the WHITE(or right) clay for me!

What's happing on this clay "trip".
I am still working and developing and playing with clays(with out MANGANESE) and throwing and carving and manipulating and texturing and glazing and not glazing...
but I have a few photos I feel like I can post....
The ones that have glaze on the outside creating a texture were re-fired after I was unhappy without something else making the inside and the outside of the pieces relate and create a cohesive unit.
I am moving back and forth between these ideas...
Glaze, no glaze, clear glaze texture, smoothness...
In the background are pieces that i have been working with wedging bits of clay in contrast colors into the mound and then throwing and carving... and also throwing and layering up other slips in other clay colors to carve through, reveal... etc...
My head is spinning... just like my wheel!
Trying to enjoy the trip as I am usually wired to focus on the very end result..
