Day after Tax Day

I am thankful taxes are Tom's job. It would drive me nuts.

I have a glaze kiln cooling. I overslept and missed water aerobics. My second wheel is set up, and a bit of a disappointment. It vibrates, and rattles. I guess my primary wheel has spoiled me. It is the best available, I am convinced. Smooth, quiet, no vibrations at all.

Once I get the kiln unloaded, I need to pack up 5 or so pieces to ship to a gift shop that is interested in carrying my work on commission. I am excited about that, but nervous too. I think it will be a good fit, and I am hoping and praying things sell easier there than online. I think the clientèle will be different, which may be a good thing.

I am working on a few porcelain pieces right now, but the main thing I have on my mind is a set of dishes for a special order. I have plates done, but I still am thinking through how I want to glaze them. Fun....

Here is another picture of one of the raspberry pieces...I am not sure I will sell this one. It might be a part of my collection. :)
