Finished glazing my hummingbird #sculpture tonight! (Actually he’s a #Christmas #ornament as well)

The purple glaze will become a splendid iridescent green once fired. For an example, check out the dragon sculpture currently for #sale on my Etsy.

You need to slather that stuff on really thick…

I have to fire it with special wires so it doesn’t touch the kiln shelf because it is glazed on every surface! I’m working up to a firing of not only this, but some other objects (mushroom pendants…) that need the same treatment, and they’ll all be done at once. I’ll be kinda nervous until I see them all safely out, since I’ve never done this before…
