Sketches

I went in yesterday and my two mugs I made before dried out a little faster than I had thought they would, oh well. I also ended up throwing another mug that looks like the one below. It's large and very circular. I plan on making a design on it with wax and then dipping it into a high fire glaze.

I also began painting another mug I made today. The parts that are seen as carved in are painted "nutmeg" which will be a orange/black shiny color while the rest of the mug will contrast it greatly and be black.

I have many mugs to still paint before my presentation but I'm not too worried because I have time and painting isn't the most time consuming part of the mug process. I've made so many more mugs than I originally said I would in my proposal, it's crazy. Granted, I don't love them all but a great majority of them are great mugs and I can see myself using them daily.
