Wooden Bowls

Here is another area I have been playing with. Last second, I decided to do something extra for some of my family members. Had planned on just wood burning the family names on the back, but once the wood burner had warmed up, I just couldn't stop myself. Started with the cat bowl for my sister.













Then did the Bear Family Bowl for another family member.


Last, finished with the Beaver Bowl for family friends.

Seems like nothing is safe once I start thinking.

Cats, Mother Earth's Tree of Life and Plates

Thanks to a very talented friend, Jeffery Guin, who is a fabulous artist, I tried my hand at painting on clay with black glaze. Now, please keep in mind that I haven't done any kind of artwork in years, so be kind....

Most people seem to like the cat plate that I painted. It was great fun...though challenging. Izzy, our kitty model, kept trying to run off with my paint brushes.


My son & I liked the other plate I painted best. "Mother Earth's Tree of Life". Both were fun to try a hand at.
