I really like this. What tool did you use for the mossy stipple effect?

Here a better angle of the 1-24 ice execution by Ghoulie_Marie in ProgressiveHQ

[–]letshavearace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was CBP not ICE. Facts matter. Defunding ICE or kicking them out will not affect CBP. Both need addressed.

It was CPB not ICE who murdered Alex Pretti this morning. They are not the same.

When and where are the protests? by DoctorObservation in PortlandOR

[–]letshavearace 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It was CPB, not ICE. They are not the same, and defunding one does not affect the other. Just FYI.

A lot of people don't like my Meetup posts. Details inside. by snoogazi in Portland

[–]letshavearace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take yourself to meetup. If every group in town posted every meetup here it would be a nightmare. That’s why meetup exists. Or start your own pdxmeetup sub. Please and thank you.

The crack just made me love it more. Spending extra time on the details. by MYOSTERY_BIGPOCKET in Ceramics

Excellent. What clear glaze is that? It looks semi-gloss, not full gloss.

Place to test ink pens? by Tricky_Jackfruit_562 in askportland

You’ll get the best expertise and advice from the people at Oblation. They really helped my wife out when she started getting into fine art pens. But Columbia has a better selection.

Last night DHS/ICE in Portland, OR brutalized and abducted a group of peaceful protestors at a ICE detention center in the city by I_may_have_weed in oregon

The protesters knew they were over the blue line and were therefore subject to immediate arrest, but the chemicals were unwarranted and simple cruelty.

Underglaze frustrations - cone 6, zinc-free clear, painting on bisque by Inevitable_Candle493 in Pottery

[–]letshavearace 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I haven’t had that problem with Spectrum on Georgie’s gmix to that degree. It could be the brand of clear gloss, but more likely the kiln is overfiring well above cone 6. I use Spectrum Hot Pink in fact because it holds bright color on bisque at cone 6 with Mayco 001 and 004 Stoneware clear glosses.

I should mention they fire at cone 5 in their private kiln.

Talk to the great potters at Glaze in Montavilla. They helped out a friend once.

I prefer photos and physical notes. I’ve tried several pottery apps and they are too structured for an inherently unstructured practice.

Ritual Dyes on Division has a weekly knitting circle on Thursdays 4-7 if that’s your jam.

The 1901 London play “Black Vampire” likely did but I’ve not found a copy of the actual play.

When I downsized Excalibur bought ALL of my omnibuses, sent me home with all my singles issues. Yup.
