Latest Tile

This is my latest tile to come out of the kiln. I tried some different shapes and colors on this one and I'm still trying to decide whether I like the combination or not. The colors aren't as bright as the last ones.
The first photo is the tile before it was fired. The second photo is after the glaze firing.

I've got one more tile that will be fired Friday. That will be all of the tiles for awhile. I have started a colored pencil piece that I hope to work on this weekend and hope to post it soon after. I'm definitely counting the days until school is out! I'm preparing for my trip to France and I hope to spend lots of time at the drawing table this summer!
Hope you have enjoyed the fish tiles. I've enjoyed creating them. I like to play with my whimsical side. These little guys are lots of fun.

    I love the tiles! All of them look great, and they look like they were a lot of fun to make. I wish I had been in an art class that gets to do this stuff, but could you imagine me in Art 2 or 3?

    I can't believe Jason graduates this month. Doesn't it seem like Jess and I were just walking across the stage?!?

    I'm so excited for your trip here! I will nearly pass y'all at the airport as I return at 11:30 the night before you're leaving.

    I will have to make sure I get back to Blytheville once you get back so you can give me your take on my city!

    Miss you--S

    Hi Sarah! It seems like just last year that you guys graduated!

    I'm so excited about the trip! Too bad you can't stay and tour with us! I guess you've done it all before though. It should be interesting.

    I miss you too!
