We've had our first snow of the season, and I had an inspiration. Completely unrelated they just happened to have occured on the same night.
I have a large abalone shell and I decided I needed to try to mold some clay on the inside and then attempt to get a patina that might replicate the beautiful colors and shine of the shell itself. Here is one I've left in the shell to dry and one I removed right after pressing it. If it works I'll either use it as is or make a mold of it.
I am hoping they will dry in time to put in the kiln, later today with all the other pieces I have ready to fire today, and I hope it will all fit in my little tiny kiln.
A perfect day to fire up the kiln don't you think!!
To be continued.....
