another green man, this time glazed, I used a piece of bark to texture his nose![]() and a plate, this was really meant as an experiment with glaze, I dipped it in mushroom which is a matt glaze and then dribbled some honey to make the stripes, thats gloss, it blead into the matt and made nice soft feathery patterns, I might do a couple more with this colour combination. ![]() wonder what tonights class with inspire me to produce? :ph43r:

You are wonderful at this. I love them both. I wonder if you took the same idea on the green man and did an orange with a light brown combo to get an effect similar to my embracing pair piece. Still can't find my notebook that tells what I used. I thought it was a one step glaze though that blends that way. I will keep looking.
