March Mudness
Monday I made these four mugs.
Tuesday I had an appointment with the urologist.
Wednesday I set about trimming the mugs.
Not all of the mugs survived trimming. I went too deep with one and cut through it. So I reconstituted the trim scraps and remade a fourth mug, a sort of big brother to the others.
I had enough reconstituted scrap to pull four handles, and one by one I affixed them to the mug bodies via the Slip&Score method.
This went well with the three smaller mugs, and I still had session time, so I carefully trimmed the still-soft larger mug and put the last, largest handle on it, completing the quartet.
The NCAA’s annual basketball tournament is colloquially known as March Madness. For one who strives to be One With Clay, March Mudness is a better fit. 🙂
One with Clay, Image and Text 
Oh, so when it is wet it has a blue sheen to it. But when it dries, it gets blacker, but with silvery gray specks. I see. I’d love to see how they look after bisque, and how you glaze them!
Some depends on the lighting, but the appearance changes more as the clay dries, and more yet after being fired. I will document those stages as well. Anything for the Chocolate Lady! 🙂
