Coming together in a collaboration project very soon!
Another version of my blue mini-tile quilts.
Kinda diggin’ the juxtaposition of the colors & angles.
We’ll see how they turn out after glazing!
Textured tiles… mini tiles kinda creating a “quilt” of sorts. Each individual tile is less than an inch square. Thanks to MKM Pottery Tools for cool handrollers that made most of these textures!
Parts & pieces coming together… working on some new “collaboration” pieces for “4×4 : FOUR MAKERS.” Kinda loving how the underglazes are highlighting the textures made with some of my MKM Pottery Tools handrollers! Time to start glazing pretty soon! Just two more weeks until “4×4”!!!
Textured tiles now accented with colored slips & drying in a plastic grid to avoid warping! Can’t wait to fire these to see the colors pop… and quick… “4×4” is just two weeks away! Yikes!!!
Some early morning textured tiles in the works… getting ready for “4×4 : FOUR MAKERS” which is just about two weeks away! A mix of textures using my own handmade stamps & some using my favorite MKM Pottery Tools handrollers!
Playing with some of my MKM Pottery Tools handrollers… making mini textured tiles with a master plan?! I’ve got a themed project in the making… and this is the start of the first of four pieces!
There’s a little something new brewing in my studio… after a night of playing with textured rollers last night. I have a loose “plan” here… we’ll see how it comes together?! Hopefully well… and in time for the “4×4 : FOUR MAKERS” show the end of this month!!! Fingers crossed…
