For the last 12 hours of studio time I’ve been working at forming new clay pieces to become future pendants. It’s more time consuming than I thought. I’m making many more than I did in my first batch. I roll out the clay, let it sit and dry for hours, cut out shapes, smooth and form them with my fingers, then set them to dry again. When they are completely dry I’ll lightly sand them so I have a smooth side to draw on, and so they feel good against the skin. Then they will be ready for the kiln. It’s not the most exciting work; I like doing the drawing better. But, I’m excited to have at least 130 tiny canvases.
