Have you found YOUR Grail?

[ink_n_imp]

'Cause I found mine last weekend.

Or, more truthfully, I made mine.

I'd never thrown ceramics on a wheel before, and last weekend while I was up a New Paltz, joined in the Holy Fellowship of Defeating Resident Evil 5, of Romping Madly through the woods with a camera and an overwhelming willingness to look silly in front of it, and of Quaffing Lots of the Mead and Cider and Beer, neo_ninja's roomie Jessie took us to the SUNY's art studio and taught us the ways of the clay and wheel.

And for my first time, I MADE A GRAIL.


BEHOLD ITS' HOLY MAJESTY!!!




IF it survives the kiln (I've been having nightmares of air bubbles. *shudder*), it shall emerge with a green glaze, and I shall bear it forth, and shall decorate it with gild and pearls and I shall dub it The Chalice of the Green Knight.

Because really, if you're GOING to be a dork, you may as well go all out.

And then you had me, who was perfectly content to fling clay off the wheel. I like how my pic came out. You actually look like you're about to SING to your grail.

Hehe, I'll I need is a shield, a sword and a knightly tunic and I think we have ourselves a Waterhouse!
