Here's the current state of the fusion cross with the blue grotto glaze after firing.
Now I can add glass to the sections.

Tide Pool WIP
I added the seaweed, a sea urchin, a horseshoe crab, a small school of fish, some random bubbles. I also moved some things around a bit and brought in the shoreline.
I think it's still getting better, but I don't want to clutter it too much. I still want an anemone or two if I can squeeze them in. The shell is getting lost; I need to boost the color and maybe add another shell. I also still want to churn up the water on the shoreline a bit more. Please keep the suggestions coming. Thanks!

The Star of the Pool
More work on the star...
I'm thinking maybe a horseshoe crab and/or some anemones. Maybe a fish or two. Seaweed? Any other suggestions?

Red Starfish
Here's where I'm at on the starfish. Added a lot of environment and better lighting. Oh and the starfish has red knobbies now.
I think I upped the realism quite a bit. I worked longest on the foam, but it's really subtle.

Blue Starfish
Here's a starfish I'm working on to go along with my seashells.
Colors and textures are not final. It has a skeleton (virtual) so I can reposition the arms easily. Any suggestions on coloring or environment?

Raku Jewelry
I'm thinking of having another raku firing soon. Here's some raku jewelry pieces I made a while back. I need to decide which, if any of them, are worth putting on Etsy. I also have no idea what to charge. Any advice or comments appreciated.

Ceramic/Glass Fusion Cross
I'm making this ceramic/glass fusion cross. What is that? you ask. Well stay tuned...
First I take the ceramic cross and paint it with a glaze. This glaze is called "Blue Grotto." It's not very blue yet. (Note the sections--hint, hint).
