I added some new creation on Etsy and Dawanda, ends tonight 's EURO WEEK ... and even if some are' demotivated, not seen sales, grit my teeth and still have hope.
my recent works are not glazed, I find them already so beautiful! When the clay was leather hard, I did the decorations you see engraved with a Miretta removing excess clay, so the surface is smooth and shiny after the first cooking shows. The effect that I wanted to here is very slight, but insisting you get more of the highly polished surface.
If the shape of our object lets us know we can smooth with a spoon, mind you, if you use clay white and go smooth with a steel head (like a spoon), after the first firing the white ground will be dirty.
