Tree Stump Scrying Dish

Postby Tanneitha » 02 Jul 2007, 17:40

This is my first entry.  I have not yet learned the finer points of scrying, but I still wanted a dish set aside for that purpose.  This piece was hand-built from light red clay to resemble a tree stump.  It has two (or three?) shades of gray on the outside with both glossy and matte-finish glazes on it.  The inside is about 3/4-inch deep, with jet black glossy glaze.

The subject line has the title of the piece.

This is Morda he is 7 inches long and 4 inches high. His eye sockets are empty and you can place your thumb inside his mouth. He looks like a Dusky slug viewed from above. Morda took 2 weeks to carve and he sits on my alter.


Moderator please move photo`s if they take up too much room. Thank you.

This is a large acrylic painting I just finished.  I was inspired to combine all the elements in their beauty at this most magical time of day.

Salamander

Salamander

I created this tiny salamander from FIMO, a kind of artist’s clay.

I formed him around a small black glass stone, as though embracing a coal or pebble of volcanic glass.

He is roughly the size of a penny.
