Clinky Classic 2012

Congratulations to Jackie Hasser and her colt Okie's Fantasy, a beautiful Red Okie Clay from the factory run. Great job Jackie!

This is one of the dark variation Okies.  I had trouble about halfway through the run, with the reds fading. The more horses in the kiln, the longer the kiln takes to get to full heat, the longer the total hours of firing, the more red burns out. So for the second half of the run, I deepened my red underglaze and really hit them hard with it. Production teaches you lots of handy things... but that is why there are essentially two colors of Okies. First half (ish) and second half.

Congratulations also to Maggie Schneider Barkovitz  and her gelding Nabu, a Stormwatch in medicine hat overo. Looking good Nabu!

Congratulations also to (I'm pretty sure) Lois Bennington and her Otto named Sidekick. He's a lovely example of the factory run Otto ponies. Snorty!

Congratulatins also to Keith Bean and his Royal Worcester stallion, Vin Diesel, for the win at Clinky Classic. Vin Diesel was an old factory bisque, used as a guide for the casters to assemble the horses in production. After decades as a white bisque, Keith and I glazed him and gave him his mojo. He always does well!
