Ceramic Study - Miniature Busts

I've been wanting make some miniature busts for a while, ever since I painted a flurry of heads a few years ago, I refer back to them all the time and quite fancied bringing them to life a little more.


4 painted women's heads. variously wearing hats, crowns, ruffle collars and big hair. black and white on kraft

So I used one of my days at the atelier to make some porcelain busts. I wasn't great at taking photos so there are only a few but here is from soft clay to fired and glazed.




The little gang all waiting to dry before their bisque firing.

At home after their glaze. You'll see from these and my other pieces that its going to take me a while to get the hang of glazing! A bit too thick but I'm working on it...Cerma

Next, into the oven at home for a little bit of Pébéo gold...



Finally, all dressed up in their collars!
