Much to my surprise, I did not get called into work today. I was able to read a few more articles this morning as well as finishing the slip layers on the 4 disc patterns. I continued on more cans....(never-ending)
I broke and rearranged 2 plates that were firming up overnight, and then I tried something new with 2 of the discs that got dry by dinnertime. I held the 2 together and cut them into strips, then I alternated them with the other one...every other strip back into a circle. Each of these discs were opposing forces, good versus bad, or more properly, evil versus innocence. I turned the strips over and taped them together and applied them to the clay, and put them over the molds. I applied under glaze over the bottoms with paper cutouts as a resist to mask off areas from receiving colors. These 2 plates should be firm by tomorrow! I am keeping my fingers crossed!!!
