Fake Pottery!


Yep, i've gone and made a bit of not real-sgraffito. It's just an individual drawing which i overlaid the pot masks and shadows. Gives me an idea of what i could do. I really just planned to do a set of A3 prints in this colour combo, but thought why not cheat a bit. Don't ask how the dog has out lived his owner... he just has!

    Genius!!!! I need to take this image, enlarge it and put it in a frame in my workshop. I cannot wait until you can make jugs that shape Scott you are going to blow people away with stuff like this. Never mind a few old flowers, you rock!

    God bless you Matt. If i can make anything near to those kind of shapes I'll be a happy man. I'm so looking forward to testing out slip and tools, to see what marks i'll have to work with. There's definitely a challenge ahead for me, but i'm right up for it!! I still want to draw up an Elijah design, so if you have a bunch of info or pics(relatives that bridge the gap etc), i'd see what i could knock up. Make a nice A3 print for you. It would be a small payback.

    Yes get a shop! Though you will end up spending hours in queues in the post office. No Box man T I'm afraid but I'm getting some new ones from Gingham soon which are better and I'll send you one of them.

    Cheers Andy.. the posting thing has always put me off! I don't know how some do it without a little postal assistant. I'll have to keep it minimal.
    ( i knew my box man wasn't up to scratch, but couldn't resist)

    Ron, you're welcome to one. If anything in particular jumps out at you, i'll print it up.You've earned it!

    Scott, sorry to have to ask, but what is that last item in Fred's list?

    I'll take ya up on the print offer. I'll have a look and if you'd like something we could do a trade!

    Hey Ron... don't apologise, it's a very bad Guinness glass! I meant to 'scratch' out the liquid, but the rest were line so i left it, as it didn't feature on the 'pot' itself. Also no need to trade for a print, i'd love a swap at some point though. I think you get the first one gratis. How about a nice print of that 'sgraffito' Dead Ends, with all the characters?
    Same to you Matt, if you're interested... or whatever else. Both very welcome.

    Ah! We had Guinness pie for supper last night! I'd love a Dead Ends print. Thanks!! Just let me know if you see a pot you like at some point.
