A great collection of my handmade “Ghouls” gearing up for the Halloween season!
Thanks for sharing your collection Diane!!!

So here’s my sister Jen’s GHOULS COLLECTION. She might have one of the largest collections out there… although she is missing a couple. Can anyone spot the missing Ghouls??? It’s a shame they’re all Limited Editions!!!

And more importantly… does ANYONE out there have all of them???
If so, send me a photo of them on display!!! – gary@firewhenreadypottery.com

Creepy Clowns… the newest member of THE GHOULS COLLECTION. It’s a Limited Edition of forty… and when they’re gone, they’re gone!!! They’re all very similar, but each on has a different color combo & personality. It will be great fun to see how people analyze & pick their favorite this weekend at ART IN THE BARN!

The newest addition to THE GHOULS COLLECTION…
limited edition Creepy Clowns!!!

Coming out of the kiln… not so creepy, I think they’re pretty cute.
Vibrant colors with a smirky-toothy grin… half with hats, and half with flowers “squirting” water!! All coming out for ART IN THE BARN this weekend in Barrington!

Finally all glazed & going into the kiln! I always find it funny that this crazy “mint ice cream” green glaze somehow turns clear in the firing?! Feels good to have them “safely” in the kiln… one step closer to getting them done… and one HUGE step towards getting them all to ART IN THE BARN this weekend!!!

Looks like it’s time to get some glaze on! Everything is finally painted with underglaze… so now it’s time for a layer of clear glaze to make everything shiny & more vibrant.

So much cuter… errr, I mean “creepier”… with more colored accents!!! Love ’em or hate ’em… no matter what your take on clowns is… I’ll have forty of them coming to ART IN THE BARN this weekend. They’re a Limited Edition… and when they’re gone, they’re gone… just like all of the the Ghouls who have come before them!

Even tombstones need some color, right?!

Just a few more colored details to add… lipstick, yellowed teeth, water drops, etc. … and then I can do a quick layer of clear glaze over them all. Going into the kiln with just a tiny bit of time to spare?! You know I how love unloading hot clowns from a warm kiln just in time for an art fair!!!

Hair we go… err, I mean HERE we go… with some bright color starting with the hair!!!
