Plates!
It's hard to get a good picture of these while they're being made. You have to use your imagination for the final result: The swirly patterns will be true black and white (like the portfolio pictures), and the designs in the middle will be fun, bright colors. I'm testing out the usual suspects: Red, chartreuse, salmon, and every turquoise there is. I'm hoping later down the line to be able to custom tailor the colors to whatever you request. (Including, God forbid, yellow.:)
Anything new takes some testing and adjusting, so there's no saying exactly when I'll have a lot of these. But I'm breaking one of my rules of only doing a couple examples of anything new by making far too many for the first test. My rationale is that anything that doesn't work will make *really* good mosaic pieces... (of which I'm always running short).
The trays (below) are done and waiting for firing. I haven't thought about what comes next. I do want to build up a LOT of inventory in the next couple of months, because...
Behind the scenes I'm working on expanding the pottery. A lot. I'm *hoping* for a summer opening for that.
