I finished Starr's Moose and moved onto the next project. This adorable penguin!
I finished this in Marchish. Then I started on This wonderful project and am almost finished! It is for a Christmas present. Those are the only details I can Divulge at this time!
The Purple one isn't quite finished. You basically start out with a piece of greenware (I think that is the proper term) that is super fragile! you clean it up and get all the seams from the molds off. Then Gorgiene, this sweet old lady fires it for me and the next week you are ready to paint! Gorgiene makes all of these herself and is so amazing! I am almost done with this project and can't wait to start another one! I think I may need something else to go with my penguin! I know it's just painting something and doesn't take too much creativity, but I really enjoy it, it's just artistic enough for me to handle!
So there you have, my new hobby!
OH I can soooo understand falling in love with that hobby. In fact that was a family hobby for several years with my mom, Miste, Aleta and I for years when I was in junio high. That painting can be addictive.
ReplyDeleteYour penguin is super cute!
I'm so glad you have found a fun outlet from all your stress.
I was going to say the same thing as celiac. We used to go to the ceramic shop in Moore all the time with mom. That's where the cool nativity collection she had came from. That was probably a years worth of work for mom. She did some cool things over the years. And yes, I get the whole "one of everything" desire for sure. That's how I always felt. Though none of what I did ever turned out as cool as mom's or yours!
