Dia de Los Muertos Ofrenda 10






This very rough pitcher, made with the very last of the first DOD Skull cane will always make me smile. It's not the best use of technique but I had FUN making it.

The penny on the lower left is the size reference. The Japanese Salad dish was an exercise in making micro mini food. The clay things the salad is on are my first tortilla efforts back in the early days. All the Sugar Skulls are from the same cane.

Dia de Los Muertos 12


This batch is done with the Tongues of Fire cane. Done as a pinch pot, a bubble pot, a tube bead. They are children of the surround color of the first DOD skull cane on the left. I use the same colors over and over and put them through their paces as I learn how to get a grip of my clay. My whole clay journey is captured on this page, including the burnt tea set representative there on the lower middle. On the right is the tiffany lamp shade done with tons of translucent, but that's another story.
