At least, I hope it's edifying . . . Also, in response to your offer to share low-fire glazes, I'd love to see the recipes! And I like the idea of the secret in your sculpture above. Similar to something I've toyed around with in some of my small wall pieces. I added technical details to my morning post for your reading edification. At least, I hope it’s edifying . . .

I need to do something about my links page; right now I've got a huge pile of blogs on Google reader that don't appear there. I do tend to call the sculptures geodes, just for the sake of an easy identifier, though I don't truly have a name for them. Fantastic objects of mystery? Glazing as painting... hmm... at the moment I'd think of it as a painting technique, a thin coating. Abstract and minimal indeed! Cynthia - Blogroll away!

One of my classmates was using pastels and she called them paintings. In my mind, I always labeled pastels a drawing medium.

I hope you don't mind if I added you to my blog roll as I'm always on the look out for other clay related blogs. The 3 pieces shown above are really interesting - wish I could see them in person. They almost remind me of geodes, but I won't try to add a label. Difference between drawing and painting? Having done both, I don't think there is a difference. Both involve making marks on a surface whether it's 2d or 3d. Maybe the only physical difference is that one is suspended in a fluid and the other is dry - but that wouldn't account for pen and ink drawings would it? I might even take it a step further and call glazing painting, in a very abstract and minimalist way. Thanks so much for visiting my blog!
