I should start by saying that my girlfriend is a potter. She is just about to start pursuing her master's degree in Fine Arts, and concentrates on pottery. Really nice pieces that involve birds. Lots, and lots, of birds. She raises chickens and has a couple of parrots, but I'm sure that has nothing to do with it...
Anyway. For the last couple of years, I've been helping her out whenever she and a group of other people fire their anagama (wood fire) kiln. It's a week long, fairly intensive process, and she (and the others) have been pushing me to make something to put in the kiln.
My own lack of art skills and a good dose of self-conciousness have stopped me so far, but this time around I finally got around to making something; a little bear with a demon-thing popping up out of its back (the idea being that the demon is possessing the bear, but not in a bad way.) I also made a tiny little kiln-ocopia. As soon as I get around to taking some decent pictures, I'll toss up a link.
And now... you. =) |
