Saturday Sinead and I found a HUGE supply of nice sticky clay while scuba diving in the river , it's where the current dividing in front of an island has washed the silt away, exposeing the clay . today I made pinch pots of the raw clay and of the clay mixed ithh 1. stoneware 2. terracotta 3. grog . I also made 15cm sticks of the mixes to test shrinkage. I will fire them at different tempatures to find out the vitrafacation point.
I also finished painting some bits
I also made 2 plaques of Magdelene girls
finally I did more of my Hump mould for a big plate
