Being a beekeeper is a passion.
It's a blend of science & art.
I'm contemplating a few new venues in 2016 so it's time to work on some new designs.
Often, new designs start with a sketch or a drawing.
Sometimes I paint but lately I've returned to my clay roots.
Clay is nice because I can work 3 dimensionally & if I'm successful I'll be able to use the clay as a mold or cast it in plaster for future casting.
Here's a beginning clay tile taking shape.
Bisque (post firing),
Wet glaze ~ Pre firing.
6X6" tile post firing. Transparent green glaze.
The transparents are cool as they pool into the textures & add another dimension.
