The wood firing workshop through The Art School at Old Church is finally happening.
Here I am in my new apron, courtesy of Ellen Mulligan, ready to make a few more pieces for an upcoming wood firing in the Peters Valley Noborigama kiln.


Its been difficult to get too dirty with my stylish splint on my wrist, but I think I have an idea.  If I use a mold I won't get too messy.  


This mold is a favorite of mine from a few years back.

  
The lemons look good enough to eat, almost.



Can you tell which are the real lemons.


I made a lid to seal up the hole left by the pour spout of the mold. The seam will also have to be erased and then these will be bisqued and fired in the wood kiln.
