Birds

This fellow is a red eyed vireo. I've only seen one (he must have been migrating). He was light tan with an iridescent olive green sheen. Quite lovely, but he took forever to identify.

Here's a house finch, looking for a good nesting spot. (Someone's front door, maybe?) I'll glaze these plates tomorrow (along with the sparrow and goldfinch plates).

This week I threw the last of the porcelain. Which means only one thing:

It's time to recycle!! This slop is great... smooth as cake batter. I'm hoping to squeeze four more plates out of it.

Here's my second tile for the 8 inch by 8 inch BayArts fundraising show. I'm excited to try something like this on a larger scale with bird baths.
