Me painting slip on the cups I made yesterday. They’ll be ready to decorate tomorrow.some work in progress big 20 oz cups. They have handles slip and line work. Now they dry out and go into the killn. After that is the fun part: color!I’m working on an art project about US 62, one of the first highways in the USA: Niagara Falls, NY to El Paso, TX. I made some decals for cups, and plan to give the finished cups to different people that I meet along the route during my travels. The cups still need to be fired, I’ll also grunge the surface: to make the cup look old and rusty. Stay tuned!
