WBW - Snowy Owl

Welcome to 2013!!!!

It was a big year for me, I've seen and been able to photogragh so many new birds!

Many right at my back yard feeders!

 

I've also been lucky enough to do some traveling and see more new birds that way.

These gorgeous Snowy Owls are not in my back yard but I don't have to travel very far to see them.

These 2 and probably a couple more are about a 30 minute drive for me in the
Ballard neighborhood of Seattle.

 

 

 

I went back this morning to see them and this one on the rooftop was there again.

(that is assuming it's the same one but I think this is it's preferred hangout)

 

Unfortunately when I took my camera out I realized I hadn't put the memory card back in so couldn't take new pictures.

Scratch Foam Results

I posted on the AJE blog today about my Original Textures in Scratch Foam.

Here are the results.

I took them out of the kiln while they were very hot which gave them a much different look than I've been doing lately, I rather like it and think I'll do it more often.

That said...if anybody wants them tumbled and torched I can certainly do that with any of these pieces.

They are certainly very rustic this way, just a little bit of brushing to get the carbon off.

These will become toggles when I get a chance to make the other end of them.

Those Owls turned out so cute don't you think?

Assorted rounds, pendants, earrings pair and toggles.

Lovin the hearts!!!!!

This weeks new Copper

Let me just start by saying I LOVE these new pieces,

I'll try to only say it this one time and not when I talk about each piece.

It's so much fun to always be thinking of new things to make,

 new shapes new textures,

 tweeking something old so it's different and fresh!!

These Owls fit in the NEW category,

you know how I feel about them so I won't say the L word again.

Not a new Shape or Texture but this time I put Ammonite in Leaf Shapes

Fabulous!!

Again a shape and texture you've seen before but I put them together.

Large Ammonite Button

Another shot of the Ammonite Leaves.

Tribal Texture in Large Button!!!

This is one of the first textures I made and I'm happy you all seem to like it as much as I do!

A grouping of the Big Buttons,

Ammonite and Tribal.

One of my lovely customers suggested using the Tribal Texture in this shape and I think it's amazing!

It's still pretty early in the morning and I wasn't sure the early dawn filtered sun would give me anything I could use but after lightening them a little I can't complain.

I'll take more pictures later and get some of these listed over the weekend.

As usual if you want something let me know and I'll reserve it just for you!

I had to stop myself so many times from using the L word,

I did good!!
