Had a few frustrating weeks not being able to get in the studio for various reasons. Waiting for porcelain pieces to be fired, although some are so fine they are crumbling when air dried. Holding them together with wire, which is giving some beautiful effects. Varnished some parts before firing - the contrast between the varnished and non-v is obvious - some subtle tones.
Also fine-tuning wax bricks - making in layers, plunging them into cold water before pouring hot wax - trapping lint between, then piercing with soldering iron.
