Ouch, I feel your pain, Get well soon.
-
When I had my 2 shoulder surgeries, I had to sleep in my recliner for a month each time. If you have one you might try it...Hang in there and recover soon, Chilly!
-
Sleeping definitely the worst thing. Pile of pillows is helping. And busy during the day.
-

I couldn't get on either, I even e-mailed Joseph to see if he could get on. CMF accidently locked me out one time, so I was just checking I wasn't the only one.
-
I think there was something wrong with the website.
-
Yes. Jennifer got it fixed. She is the head administrator for CAD.
-
It's official. Surgery two weeks time to fix my collarbone. Gotta get some clay finished first.

I wish you minimal pain and fast recovery.
-
I'm sure it will be a big relief to get it fixed. All the best with your recovery : )
-
Good luck Chilly, hope you recover quickly.

Sold my "Throwdown" style Pierced vase to "painter" at the pottery class. Picture in gallery.

Her secret is, she does ALL the carving and then, only then, does she pop the cutouts. That way she has the integrity of the clay and can do much more intricate work.
-
I love pierced work so I thought you might like this tip. Not to take away from your vase which I think is absolutely gorgeous.
-
Thanks Giselle, I like the cut it all, then remove it process. The clay has to be just the right hardness, Too soft and it doesn't cut, too hard and you end up scraping it out. Will try this technique on the next one tho'.
-
Recycled and wedged a bucket of scraps. Shoulders aching. Should be nice and soft to throw at next weeks class.

Kiln is cooling, with first batch of tiles. Next job, to extrude the border and stamp the names into it....

thanks all for your support. ow sums it up politely. i apologize in advance if I seem GRUMPY, but I am. it was my own fault, so rather annoyed with myself. in 6-8 weeks time i should be back to normal! happy, optimistic self :-)
-
Oh, that sux. I wish you a speedy recovery.
-
Awwww that doesn't sound like a holiday. Take care, go easy and get well soon. Can you draw instead of potting?
-
Only the strawberry plants are left in the greenhouse/studio, I've got loads space again. Whoooppee. Time get those tiles made ready for scout camp.

My non-art brain is being pushed to the hilt. I have to design a 60+ tile mural for Scouts and Explorer Scouts to carve at an event in July. I wish my mouth would learn to stay shut.

Yeah, I'm thinking the mural should be like a photo montage of the weekends activities - pole-lathing, blacksmithing, baking bread, basket-making, archery, jousting. Oh yea, and pottery!
-
A medieval/Camelot type weekend.
-
Take pictures into Photo shop, Make them Black and white, montage together, then change bightness and contrast. Print out and trace the line patterns.
