Macro Mondays - Pick Two
I chose to use my colorful collection of candy canes to create a Twisted Candy image for the theme this week. HMM
To create a lustre finish, metallic oxides are applied to the pottery then fired.
All I could get into three inches.
A little ceramic pottery (diameter about 4 cm) and two delicious small pieces of nectarine made my "delicate pottery"
Satisfies a double worded theme "Pick Two" for this week's Macro Mondays: #Delicate and #Insect.
The photo has been cropped to fit within the 3 inches or 7.6 centimeters size limit.
The sharpness was pushed too far as evidenced by the white line around the butterfly against the pale grey column.

-This box with lid, made by artist Anneke Schuurmans, we bought at an art exibition in 1991.
Width is 5cm. The blue in the bokeh are Iris sibirica "Perry's Blue".
-This pottery is so called Raku ware.
The Raku technique is essentially when glazed ceramics are taken from the kiln while they are still glowing red hot and are then placed in a material that would be able to catch fire, such as sawdust or newspaper. This technique is used to starve the piece of oxygen, which creates a myriad of colors within the glaze. Raku firing without glaze on them means that the oxygen is taken from the clay itself rather than a glaze, which results in some areas having a matte black coloring.
Raku firing creates completely unique pieces as there is never a certainty as to how the final piece will turn out. Raku essentially creates a unique design every time, so there is less control on the outcome.

For Macro Mondays challenge this week I went with spiny caterpillar which is curved and is an insect, which just happened to be hanging out where I was doing some yard work.
If you fav this photo please leave a comment as to why you like it, thanks in advance.
As seems to be the way of late, I find myself plunging headlong towards midnight with a fuzzy and twisted brain, hoping I don't lose my glass slipper on the way to the coach which is about to turn into a pumpkin.
Having gone round and round with this two-pronged theme today, this is finally it. You can guess the two words I chose, no doubt, but I'll tell you anyway just to be crystal clear: Iridescent + Abstract, which equals an obvious choice for me of one of my many found objects - a feather. Australian birds have a habit of being luminously bright, which is convenient. All those reddy oranges and greeny blues and yellowy yellows.
Oh no, the midnight hour approaches so enough babble and on with the rest. HMM everyone!

Thanks for taking time to fave, comment and look at my work. I really appreciate.
Showcased on a polished piece of geode.
Zodiac karma for this stone, is rather interesting: If you have some major dreams that you’re trying to manifest right now, work with one of these beautiful Zebra Jasper tumbled stones and allow its strength to empower you to take bold steps towards making those dreams come true, in service of the highest good of all. Can't hurt to add this stone to your collection. Right?

In mijn badkamer is een kleine glazen fles met een golvende rand en een gedraaide glazen stop. Zoals zoveel kleine dingen die in mijn huishouden te vinden zijn, mooi om naar te kijken en volkomen nutteloos, een decoratie die me altijd bevalt!

W mojej łazience jest mała szklana butelka z falistą krawędzią i zakręcanym szklanym korkiem. Jak wiele drobiazgów, które można znaleźć w moim domu, ładne, aby patrzeć i całkowicie bezużyteczne, ozdoba, która zawsze mi się podoba!

Delicate Pottery: we bought this wall hanging plant pot at a craft fair in Prince Georges County in Maryland several years ago. I've always been fascinated with all of the delicate detail it has. If you would like to see the entire piece there is a photo of it in my photostream. HMM everyone!
