Oh god. this was the most traumatizing thing ever to get this out of the kiln. this is the LAST TEST before i fire the last 3. i WAS hoping that this was going to turn out 10000 times better… but it obviously didn’t. WOMP WOMP. 

The other 3 are done right now, and are to be lowfired again. ugh. i hate waiting.

DECALS. Ceramic Screenprinted decals. i’ve so far taught my self how to do these, with very little instruction. They’re not that hard, but apparently they’re not reliable. I dont know. i’m crossing my fingers. /heres hoping/

Today, i’m unloading 3 kilns. Two bisque and one Test glaze. I AM REALLY hoping this turns out OK. /supernervous/ Also inaddition, its occured to me i may NOT have enough glaze for my objects. I need to go buy another jar of glaze…

EDIT: THE DECALS CAME OUT OF THE KILN AWESOME. 

So I’m now Two weeks and Two days out from thesis being turned in… and well i’m about 1/2 way done. Best part i’m going to Southern Graphics Next tuesday for my first road trip. I’m crazy nervous. one for will i get a lot out of it? and two: Will i get thesis done on time. 

So, soon keep check on me pictures of Thesis and process screenprinting will be up. Oh and Check the Corcoran Printmaking Blog too- Hopefully more print making things will be up! 

Los Cuatro amigos! 
My four ceramic closed objects. They be dry! Dry! So soon, they’ll be going into the kiln and hopefully ready to be glazed and decaled!

THESIS PREVIEW!

Last month of working. I CAN DO THIS. I see the light! 

Anyways what this is: 

Wall Panels of repeating portrait panels and ceramic objects that are about 1ft diameter and about 2 1/2 feet tall. (these are big mothers. HEAVY MOTHERS) They will eventually be glazed in a majoilica and be decaled with the same image that it will sit in front of. 

yes. that is lady gaga.
