Keeping busy

While Irene was busy winding her way up the coast, I kept busy painting my way through a pile of custom wedding tiles.
 
The tiles, for a wedding taking place in Thailand on April 2, 2012, are filled with whimsical sea life associated with that area of the world.   The couples wedding date and location will be hand written along the bottom of each tile.
In addition to the tiles, this wedding portrait ornament was painted then fired as soon as our electricity came back on.  The ornament - in its finished state - shows how vibrant the glaze colors look after being kiln fired.

Thankfully for us, Irene left in her wake mainly yard debris, a day without electricity and the opportunity to finish a few orders.  Our thoughts continue to be with all of those who were not as fortunate.
