oldlady Posted May 28, 2015 Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 did it work? edited at 12:58 pm. well, 3 did but the final one drove the brain of the computer completely crazy. it showed all kinds of things but the wheel just spun around for over 25 minutes until i convinced it to shut down completely. it went into a corner and cried. so you cannot see the finished piece until it behaves itself. funny, the TV did something similar this evening.

Judy_in_GA Posted May 28, 2015 Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 It did ... beautiful peaches ... I love your textured rim. I went out on our property over the weekend looking for a downed limb with a sufficiently large section of bark to use to make a texture roller. Didn't find one ... might have to just texture on a tree trunk! I love the way sweet gum bark looks but couldn't find any on the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldlady Posted May 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 thank youl, i do not know the original artist, the picture is wonderful mine is a pale imitation. i still have the sticks a friend gave me in 1978 when she stopped making pots. they give wonderful impressions but i do not know what kind of wood they are. for years i had a branch that looked exactly like a wild turkey's head sitting on my studio window. sometimes i could see real ones out that way. today the area is covered in white fluff, the cottonwoods have played their game of "let's make it snow again" and it did look like snow coming down.

oldlady Posted May 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 thanks, my favorite thing is to draw on clay. the least favorite is glazing. wish i could use an airbrush, maybe i can hire one of the tee shirt sprayer guys or gals. going to try to put up the final shot. typing, typing, typing................................ did not work. i resized it in paint. to 500x375. it said the server had a problem. tried all i know, for 30 minutes. no pic..sigh.............................. did same thing again and again for additional 11 minutes. it is now 1:28 pm. notice when i started. it wanted a file name. i had done that repeatedly. it finally took it by "tag" using the number the camera gave it. what a pain..............................

oldlady Posted May 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 thanks, terry, going to try again with something different, the ones you saw as bisque will be glazed. i hope. have been working on the nice page of the website my instructor has set up for me. she left me nice boxes to type in. did you know that if a cat walks across the keyboard your words disappear into the great beyond? even the nice little boxes are gone.......sigh................................... it is now 6:31 pm. no go. i am going out on the boat, toh with this............sigh......................................
