Made a large fish, finished working on two teapots (greenware stage- they are ready to be bisque fired now), glazed two fish (the sea bass and the ugly fish), 4 small square plats, one platter and a tumbler. I was surprised by how long it took to paint glaze onto the two fish....but this time I handpainted the eyes- emerald green, which is transparent, and black for the pupils.

My kids are all freaking out about the nuclear reactors in Japan....they are afraid. I don't know enough to be able to tell them much about it...but my understanding is that Sweden and Norway were affected by Chernobyl...and they recovered...except for the Lapp herders who depended upon their reindeer...what can I do but hope it'll be OK?
