Favorite quote: “Peace, it makes such a pretty sound” INXS (yup)
Hot technique or tip: just before firing, when all sanding and fine tuning have been done, I rub my work with my fingers until it feels really smooth.
Favorite tool: LiL BeLLA of course. I really like my little camping thermos. I can put hot water into it with LOS, close tightly and take it with me to workshops or lessons to patina silver clay and I can just cap it and take it with me when I leave so no one is offended after I’m finished.
