group photo

I always like to get a photo of a particular body of work before it's split up. This is my newest batch of sea urchins- made from January to March of this year. My favorites are the really spiky ones, but there's another that had most of its spines fall off- I put them on when the piece was too dry, so they fell off willy-nilly during both the prep and first firing, then again during glazing. It's sortof in the middle- I'll put this up on flickr next week and make notes. Some of these are intended to be vases, some salt cellars or votive holders. I hope some of them leave me tomorrow!
