A beautiful piece of Fleur Schell porcelain

This gorgeous quirky "home" has come to live at my place. 

Made by Fleur Schell from Soda Studios, 

using porcelain paperclay, 

the details are an absolute joy!

Thanks Fleur!

My brooches - before + after

My brooches, above, are now ready 

to send to Manningham Gallery in Melbourne.

The brooches below were shown on my blog on 1 Jan 2010.

Testing Feeneys Buff Raku and Keane Raku T

My friend, Sheila Myers, fired these test pieces in her gas kiln 
in a reduction atmosphere. 

I loved seeing the rough surface, so different to porcelain.

Progress on my ceramic bowls

Cool Ice porcelain impressed with coral, shells and quills. 

Just made - still damp ... and drying upside down.

Nathaniel Mikhaiel's beautiful ceramics

Nathaniel's work is now on exhibition at the Graduating Students Exhibition at The Inner City Clayworkers Gallery in Glebe, Sydney. These four shallow porcelain bowls are only small, about 8cm diam, and are exquisitely carved. Nathaniel is a student at Nepean TAFE.
