Continuing to glaze; pie plates today, and big salad bowls, along with some special orders. The latter are heavily slanted toward pet pictures this time, including this lovely teapot (before and after coloring).




I also took an order for more divided plates (grandchild plates, I should call them), but only because I still had some stowed away as bisque. They're a nuisance to make, as the dividers want to crack if you don't lay them down at just the right moisture level. But they give me the opportunity to paint extra pictures.

And yes, that's also a custom cat food dish, with picture of venerable and grizzled tomcat.
And then there's the family portrait: two kitties and a golden retriever, an eight-pound serving bowl (my biggest size), bound for Minneapolis.

I love my job sometimes.
