A happy productive week-end!


It rained a lot this week-end. So my daughter was happy to play inside.
Yaaay, it means more time for me to make art.  :)

I managed to paint 5 dark coloured clay bells. Ready for the first firing.

AND.... I managed to make 9 new porcelain bells. amazing! I've never been this productive in one week-end. The rain must have helped.








Saying that, it is only the beginning of nearly 2months process. (forming, drying, sponging, scratching surface, painting, firing, waiting, glazing, another firing and also finding time for 4 trips to the ceramic supply shop where firing is done) 



Here is the younger ceramic artist at home. Making "a princess bag" in porcelain.


Perfectionist?
She has been such a good girl letting me work with clay for a long time this week-end!


I hope your week-end was a good one too!

    Annamaria, oh I am glad you can now leave a comment! :) We are often like the mother and daughter in your acrylic painting "Early in the morning" :)
