Little details make the big difference

This is the final piece, I'm very happy how it came out, it's mounted and ready for a new home. Check out my first intent to engraved signature, I think that little touch made the big difference.

Me encanto el resultado final y mi primer intento de firma grabada le dio un toque final que marco la diferencia.

They are almost done

I have been so busy lately but finally getting use to my new routine, I'll let you know soon what I'm up to, for now let me show you couple pieces I just fired, the girl under water and a sign I made for a good customer, they need to be mounted but I couldn't resist to show you what they look like now.

Before the shine

Glazing is not one of my favorite ways of finishing clay pieces, I'm not patience enough to wait for hours to see the colors after a firing, on the other hand it is as exciting as opening a gift. Today I prepared couple of pieces with glaze, you can see the previous look is nothing close to the final result, well this time you are going to wait with me to see it.Estoy preparando unas piezas para hornearlas de nuevo y revelar el color lustroso que dan los esmaltes, no soy de las que tiene paciencia para ello pero me encanta hacerlo de vez en cuando. Esta vez tu tendras que esperar conmigo para ver los resultados.

Back to work

My vacations ended and it is time to play with art again, well I can't say I was totally disconnected because the remodeling project on my studio, the exhibition in Old Lyme and doing some marketing so saying I wasn't working wouldn't be true. I know you want to take a pick of the progress so there you go.

Ya terminaron mis "vacaciones" y es hora de "trabajar" los digo entre comillas porque disfruto tanto de lo que hago que no veo la diferencia entre trabajar y vacaciones, en fin he estado ocupada mercadeando, haciendo contactos y remodelando mi estudio (asi fueron mis vacaciones) y como me imagino quieres ver fotos del progreso te regalo esta.
