My old/new glaze!

I have been trying to organize my studio and I found an old glaze bucket in the corner. I was not sure how old was the glaze but I used it anyway and I am so happy with the result. Here is my old/new glaze.

First snowman!

We survived from another snow storm. Lucky it was on the weekend. I always loved snow but my 11 moth old son did not enjoy staying at home all weekend. He had some experience with his first snow man… hehehe! Here are some pictures to share!

My Lovely Red!

I have been working with the low fire red glaze for about 8 years now. I spend a lot of time and sacrificed a lot of pieces to get the gorgeous red color. Past 2 years I focused on working with a porcelain clay. I have discovered beautiful new high fire glazes.

Although, I love the result of this low fire red glaze but my heart goes for porcelain and still searching to find that perfect high fire red glaze.

Our trip to Botanical Garden!

We have an amazing Botanical Garden in RI. It is a perfect place to go on a cold winter days. We enjoyed our little trip as a family.

Porcelain Pears

I took this “Porcelain Pears” image for my Etsy shop http://newmoonstudio.etsy.com and I got a lot of compliments for the photography quality. I must say that I owe a lot to my battery powered Sonny digital camera. I was so upset after purchasing the camera because of the battery issues but so far I love my camera!!!

Wall Tiles

I have been working on designs for wall tiles for some time and finally I just finished a few. Here are two tiles from my new collection.
“The Lake”
“The Monster”

Coffe in my favorite cup!

I just took this image and love it! I could smell the coffee just from looking at this picture.

Ready For 2009!

Wow! I cannot believe my last update was on Nov 10^th.I have been quite busy for the past month …past year! First of all I had a beautiful baby boy. He totally changed my life…in a good way. I am so happy that I could still do my art and take care of my baby. I have been working on different design and textures. I am hoping to do a textured collection pieces in 2009. I am also in search of special textured glazes.

I am hoping that a New Year will bring a joy, happiness and health to everyone.

Best wishes!

SUNSHINE HANDMADE KNITS by Gina Minda

Today I added new item to my mother-in-law's ETSY shop http://www.ginaminda.etsy.com/ and I realized one more time how talented she is. She has been working for a while to come up with a pattern for her new arm warmers. I was so excited to see the result and I absolutely adore them. They are very elegant and I think they could be worn on many different occasions. Here are some of her works. If you will like to see other items in her shop please visit http://www.ginaminda.etsy.com/

Texture

This year I am focusing on different textures. I love plain surfaces but a touch of texture gives a little bit more character to the object...

Glazing is done...for now!

I finally finished my glaze kiln. I am very pleased with the result. I am very excited about my new magnets. Each of them has their own individuality. Here are some before and after pictures.
