Moss garden.

With the recent rain the patch of moss that grows next to the outside tap at the studio is looking particularly verdent. I though I would capture its soft plump mounds before the summer sun comes for good and dries it out.

Not so Foxy

Well the satin glaze is a bit thick and foggy. Muddies the detail. Its a hard one with satin glazes too thin and its dry, too thick and its cloudy- especially on fine detail.

FOXY!

Little coloured fox brooches and today in the studio more are due out of the kiln with a satin glaze. I wonder which ones will be the foxiest foxes!

Studio stuff.

I collect a lot of ceramic ornaments for my sculptural work. There is always more than I can use, but it makes for some cute collections for the studio shelves. This is part of my cat collection. Happy kitties.

Little bird.

Something new! A little bird. This one will hang. Wait to see it finished. What to do! What to do!

Cloud of the week.

I must say that Brisbane really does have beautiful clouds. These were taken from the top of my building early one Sunday afternoon.

Mould city!

With production stepping up and twenty-one moulds now. I am on mould rotation!

Cloud of the week.

A brooding painterly sweep of clouds. Taken on my way through New Farm Park.

They're multiplying like rabbits! Pesky varmints!

Lots of little rabbits, and colour lots of gorgeous colour! Oh I was running gleeful little rings around the kiln when these babies came out. And there's more come! They need brooch backs yet but right now I am having fun putting them in little rows and enjoying their colours.

Cloud of the week.

 

A beautiful, billowing bank of sun drenched, Rococo clouds! Photographed from the Stradbroke Island ferry, on a very good day for clouds.

Crafty like a fox.

A friendly little fox brooch to chase the rabbit!

Introducing CLOUD OF THE WEEK!

Cumulonnimbus. Simpsons clouds, everyone's favorite cloud!

Secret garden.

I visited Sydney recently and this is the only photo from my trip. I think it's beautiful, a miniature garden growing in the driveway of a Darlinghurst car wash......and people say I'm amused by small things.

It's all new.

I'm making some animal brooches and this is the first! A little leaping bunny, based on a vintage plastic hairclip I found in Tokyo. 

Welcome to DELTA GROUP H.Q.

Its the studio! We don't do emergencies anymore though, we make things.
