Tiles

Here are some of the latest giraffe tiles.

Under the Oaks

Last Saturday we participated in a pottery show and sale in Wake Forest. The weather was perfect, the people were nice and there was free music....what more could you ask for? The giraffe tiles had their second outing and were well received and we sold quite a bit of jewelry, too.

I'm ready for another show!

Giraffe Tiles

I want to make more giraffe tiles and I decided that I needed more images to work from. So....the challenge is on again. I'm going to try to post one giraffe drawing a day to www.onemilliongiraffes.com every day for the month of May. Wish me luck and stay tuned for more giraffe fun. Here's May One in advance.

Giraffe Tiles

I just finished carving another batch of giraffe tiles and wish I had some more tile blanks to carve. Can't wait to get these glazed and fired!

28 Giraffe Tiles

The first of the giraffe tiles are done! There are only six of them, but it's a start. They had their debut at Meredith and Mark's spring show this past weekend at their pottery www.whynotpottery.com. Of course, my favorite one went first. I brought home some more tile blanks so I can get some more giraffes going. I'm having too much fun.

Tiles

Two Sundays ago I spent a lovely Sunday with my sister and brother-in-law at their pottery in Seagrove, NC: www.whynotpottery.com. Meredith and I made components for jewelry and she also showed me how to make tiles. I came home with some tile blanks which I'm transferring the images from my 28 Giraffes project onto. I am almost finished carving them and can't wait to see them finished. This has been really fun and really different from what I usually do. Here are some pictures of the tiles in progress.
