Buttons

This is considered printmaking, sort of?
Pendants made in 2004 at Maho Bay - we impressed native plants in clay, then cut out shapes which were glazed, fired and strung to form necklaces.
 

















Had a "clay day" at home with a friend, which was cut short by a quick-moving downpour, but managed to start a new project--buttons inspired by the pendant-making. Figure they'll have many potential uses.

LOVE the buttons. I remember when you brought those pendants back to school junior year-- so cool.

I would need access to a a kiln to make such things, right?

Yes, kiln is necessary...you need to come down here and play and make things!
