Mostly painting!

The only trips out today were to feed the birds and to go to the nearest shop, which is very near, for milk! So apart from getting meals and doing a couple of crosswords I have been painting the treasure chest, which has taken a ridiculously long time. I painted the main body of the chest last night.
They will be browns, not particularly dark, but darker than it looks now when it is fired. There are handles on the sides which don’t show, just raised pottery but another bit that took time.  So now it is finished and I will take it into the studio on my next visit.
Will finish with a couple of much more interesting photos, thanks to Mike who is in Cornwall at the moment!
Dentist tomorrow for a change!

  1. A very quiet day compared to your usual routines. Good job you have all these craft projects to be getting on with. I think the chest will be nice once it’s fired. I’m looking forward to seeing it. I can see why it took a long time.
    Maybe the start of a new week will encourage the leg to play ball…..well not literally 😊

  2. New week, new dental appointment! Slightly longer walk anyway.
    Waiting for a while for rhe pottery to be fired means they are a nice surprise - hopefully.
