ODDS & ENDS

Today was truly an odds and ends kind of day in the studio starting with getting everything cleaned up and put away after a recent glaze session and kiln firing. Once that was completed, I took the time to pack up several small commissions which didn't take a lot of time but I wanted out of the way. After this and after a quick lunch came the beginning of my throwing day which started with a group of porcelain test cups followed by a number of stoneware test cups and a group of some orders/ commissions which included some 14" serving bowls and a couple of serving plates as well. The day in the studio ended with me decorating up two stoneware teabowls that are orders from half way around the world. I decorated the first one as seen here and have decided to hold the back up just as thrown until the other is bisque, glazed and fired. Always a good idea to have a spare just in case an asteroid or some other calamity hits the studio.
