New work hot out of the annealer!

Still with time to 'tart them up' a bit. Some cutting, a bit of polishing and a few new series of pieces as well as a refreshing new direction in the application of colour to my work.
First there is the series taken from a long standing series of cut paper collages I have been making for 30 years. The yellow flower image and the abstract figure in profile reflect this series.
There is also a new direction I have discovered, in the blending of new pre-fired colour layers along with my previous style of adding colour directly onto the sand.

My seated figures (or Buddhas) have improved with the new direction in colour, however the technique for these more rounded and shaped pieces needs improvement.

More to consider and more to come... Linda
