Went to Cinderelish's house today to work on pots. Cindy did some carving and I did mason stain washes on my pieces. As I dug out my pots form the travel bucket, I had several broken pieces...candy man and 2 Santas. *aaaaarhhhh*
After a yummy cheeseburger and tater tot lunch at the RetroBowl in Liberty, MO, we talked about improving our respective work. I love it when I can get a second opinion. We deduced that my work is too fragile...too much breakage from the extreme elements and thinness of my pots and their body parts.
I might:
- add text
- change forms
- eliminate *some* work, especially the extremely fragile stuff
- change up some of the decorative elements...add more...change the shape of those elements
- work on color
- work on new pieces to round out the bulk of my work
- make more molds to press into
*WOW* looking up /\ that seems like a lot to do.
