Life is a practice- talk with Tara, a potter of 22 years who gives herself grace
Tara's energy is joyful, energized, authentic. It is refreshing talking to her as she is an attentive listener and a great storyteller. Here she's sharing some of the stories of clay in her life, how it all started and what lessons she's learned from it. We can all learn about self- acceptance from Tara, a mom of 5 who balances through life with grace.
Tara is a person who brought me back to pottery after a break of few years. She is the person who taught me about firing, glazing, waxing and so many tricks that I am sharing here, on youtube. Now I wanted to talk to her on camera to show everyone how awesome she is. I am so blessed to have a wonderful, life long friend in Tara. In her pres...

Rice paper for calligraphy needs to be strengthen and held by the weights for comfortable writing and painting with ink. Join us in the garden when I am assisting Martin in bringing his vision to life. Learning a new skill is not easy and requires a person to become vulnerable and open to learning. See glimp...

      @davidhughes4020 hi David, in my video description you can read what clay I used, it's cone 6 stoneware, it does need to be fired. If you don't have a kiln you can look for a place to fire it for you, local community club or private places. Look up kiln space for rent, there's a website that shows local places, good luck!

    Wonderful work. I have one doubt: can we use a terracotta pot for planting without firing? I made one by myself but don't have access to a kiln. Can I use it for planting if I prime the air-dried terracotta pot with GESSO and paint some acrylic on it?

    • @gaeangardensbyizabela
      @gaeangardensbyizabela Месяц назад

      @HarusaiBonsai good question: what kind of clay did you use? If the clay is meant for firing- stoneware or earthenware, then I don't think it would hold itself even with acrylic paint because the water will seep into it and simply soften it back again. But if you used some sort of air dry clay, than I'm not sure, as I never worked with them, but perhaps you have some chance? If you'd like to fire it, search for local workshops, pottery stores, community groups and see if anyone can fire it for you. I believe there's a website where you can search for kilns to rent: kilnshare or something like that
