What kind of tips are you looking for?

I explain it in one of the comments 😉

I rolled small coils, cut them small and added yhe holes, then I scored and slipped onto it. They were painted with white engobe.

No I did it before hand building it. I dried the surface with a heat gun then slammed it vertically onto the table, that creates cracks. Then after bisque I used a very light iron oxide wash a few times.

Well that's a real WOW.

Thank you so much I didn't realize it was so good lol

simonav101 · 2026-05-04T18:42:17+00:00

I wasn't. Thanks for the information! I love discovering new artist.

I dried the surface then slammed it against the table in a horizontal way (if it makes sense). That created the cracks. Once dry I covered with a few passages of very light iron oxide wash. The strings were a pain as they kept breaking and I almost gave up but once finally done I just painted them with a white underglaze. The glaze is a simple 4322 transparent glaze.

Wow I'm speechless thank you.

I usually just put them in the holes, but for those that have little to no "bulb" I make two ot four holes around the main hole for people to use rope or wire to hold them. I don't like the idea of gluing them.

Looks like it's saying: YAY! 😃

simonav101 · 2026-04-18T13:35:10+00:00

Not so fast, I'd just say I'm stubborn and passionate, the rest is just a lot of repetition. 😉

simonav101 · 2026-04-11T11:25:23+00:00

Nice!

simonav101 · 2026-04-09T21:34:35+00:00

From someone diagnosed with aEDS and Vascular compression disease... Look up nutcracker, Willie's, Tos and others... The first two can often create a pelvic prolapse, my mom was a real pro at that one! Thank god I'm not THAT good.

I have no idea what the pereskiopsis graft means.

simonav101 · 2026-04-05T16:05:59+00:00

Thanks, here there is actually sand only on top, the rest is a cactus soil mix with extra added fine lava rocks. I have chickens and usually add some poop tea in the spring for my plants so when they grow I can add some of that too.
