We had another great ClayDay on a mild day in September. Monkey Ann was present (https://www.monkeyann.co.uk) and brought a lot of really cool tools and cutters. Sue started the first demo in the morning so we could all try out with her guidance. Start with a Skinner blend and create indents on top. Add white and another colour accent. ![]() Make into a triangular cane and elongate and reduce again. Add another dent, divide into 3 and then join again. Elongate again with 4 sides this time. Divide into 4 and fuse them (mirror effect). That's your main cube all done! Now reduce that cube again until it is smaller and you can combine this veneer together. So members had a go and with Sue's generous help they managed to make this beautiful veneer. Belinda's demo showed us how to make very light and flexible pieces using translucent clay. They are so see-through and look like shiny plastic! You will need to cut out a uniform round size of clay and use another guide piece of film on top. She magically rubs it and thus spreading the clay until it is the required diameter. Leave on the tile to bake and when you gently remove the piece, the part which is pressed against the tile will be naturally glossy! Monkey Ann was also present and had a table of wonderful tools, findings and cutters! It was so hard to choose what to buy when there are so many goodies to choose from. Member's also brought some of their recent makes. So many different styles shows how creative each member can be! All of our usual tables were packed with many different things for everyone to peruse. Just over a month until the last ClayDay of the year! Hope members who missed out can join for a fun day with friends.
