Candle Holders,Tea Pots and Pendants...


 Christmas is coming fast and the last couple of weeks has been just a weeee bit hectic... Our interstate move, finding a new place to live, finding a new school and unpacking and then unpacking some more. It felt like it wasn't going to get done. I had a few orders to complete and my Mum, Dad and brother came for a 2week stay with us. Which was wonderful! So in between touring our new area here in the Adelaide Hills with my family I made a promise to myself to do a couple of things each day so that I kept my self on track.  So below are the pieces that were completed and in a green state, they have been bisque fired and are now in my little kiln awaiting for that switch to be flicked tomorrow morning for their glaze firing.... So my fingers, toes and everything else possible will be crossed for a successful glaze firing...

Below are my candle holders that have been incised and carved....









 These are my newly painted pendants. My Dad painted 3 double sided pendants with his landscapes, I just loved sitting with him and painting together...


 


I felt like a little bit of colour on my new Funky Tea Pot....
And I love it!!


Even it's bottom had a little bit of attention and detail added... :)

Something a little different with the lid....

And my nature inspired tea pot....

 
 
I have really enjoyed working on these new pieces and I do hope the new owners will be happy with them.....
Thank you for visiting and please

    1. Thanks Linda, my Dad has always painted oils on canvases for as long as I can remember and it was such a special time sharing my passion with him. He is so talented! He is such an inspiration to me for my work! Thank you again! :)
