CCACA Preview

Here they are. I took a quick shot of them as I was pulling them out of the kiln. Materials: FROST Midrange Porcelain Paper Clay, Underglazes. Today I made titles.
From left to right : Little Black Party Dress, Serpentine Tea Dress, and Red Hot Hearts Dress.

The excitment is brewing as we get ready to go on our journey CCACA. I am putting the final touches the HSU ceramic flyer 2009. Very cool art. To be posted soon.

All dressed up with nowhere to go

The dresses are done...
but now what?

Most of the color is underglaze that became hot enough to flux and add a subtle sheen. I love working at cone 6 (2264 degrees f) with the color on porcelain.

The results are unique to the clay and temp in my opinion. Hot enough to flux, cool enough to keep the colors vivid.

The ruffle dress has a glaze (top peach color- Tangerine Ice) and the rest is underglaze too.

They're fragile, but at least they are done.

answers and small results

If you want to talk about ordering something, just email me for now. I am setting up a store on Etsy.com so soon orders can be made that way.
I guess the prices for the trays would be from $8- $14, depending on the glazes wanted or what surface. And if you want a set it may be different.


Here are two dresses. The left one re-fired from last semester. The one on the right is the first dress of this semester, so far, maybe I'll fire it again.
