The inside of the cup is full of pits,  what ever you are drinking will have residue that will build up in the pits.    Impossible to get it totally clean,  you can get food poisoning drinking from it.  Same thing can happen with crackle glazes and glazes that aren't a good fit to the clay.   Some ancient societies   ate off of pottery that wasn't  vitrified or glazed,  they would get food poisoning and break the plate to prevent someone else from using it.  Some people say they broke the plate to release the evil spirit,  I have had food poisoning  it does feel like a evil spirit.    Denice

I like the looks of the cup, but it bothers me that is is not a cup that can be used.  I guess I need to work on my mind set on this.    Denice

Very nice I could tell it was a Japanese woman wearing a Kimono before I took a close look at it.   I use to sculpt but after ten years I ran out of willing models.   My neighbors have several children maybe I can persuade them to pose.

They remind me of lily pads floating around in a pond.   Denice

Great piece as usual can't wait to see it glazed.  But I love seeing work in the leather hard stage you can see much more detail.   Denice

I agree with Cavy awesome!   Denice

[Reef detail - colored porcelain w underglazes & found objects]

I love the way the fins on the fish are curled it looks like they are really in water.  Denice

I also like the new shape especially the ones that curve around.  The round pots will probably be your best sellers until customers get use to the new shape.  Denice

I love the spiral pattern and the colors, it does look round even I'm glad you told me it is oval.       Denice

[Roll of the Dice]

Well done, they are technically perfect the subject matter makes me want more pictures so I can see what is on the other sides. Denice

[3 Spill fountain]

Frederik This fountain sounded like a waterfall the first time we turned it on, now we have it tuned down and it's a pleasant sound with very little splashing. I hope to get a better picture of it next spring, one with out the glare. I finished this around Thanksgiving and only had one day to run it before the freeze that night so we have it buttoned down for the winter. But I have more murals I can take pictures of and post.
