Josie at my new rooftop!!







I have moved my house and settling down! Everyday I spend lots of time at my rooftop, planting and let the rabbits out to play. Yesterday afternoon I have let Josie out for an hour accompany me doing my gardening. The pumpkin grow crazily, it is just 2 mths old. I am hoping to have some pumpkins before Christmas.

Woodfiring - Semi-fired Pots





The bigger pots were placed at the back of the dragon kiln, unfortunately the heat not reaching there. The temp just enough to fired the clay but not the ash glazes on top, they look so raw. I will fire those in the electric kiln one more time, hoping that the ashes could melt then.

Woodfiring






I am really stressed with the house moving and the woodfiring happening same month. Woodfiring is the traditional way to fire pottery and involves lots of physical work. Have to monitor and add wood for firing for around 40 hours and setup and clean afterwards. It has occupied 3 weekends of me and I am so tired after that. It is much more difficult to predict the effect as compare with the electric kiln. I have put 10 pots in and after so much work, only 2 successful fired. As above. It is very earthy and very different from normal pottery pcs.

Yoga Fair 6th Sep

Warrior Bunny is coming to town!
My yoga centre (Ananda Marga Yoga Centre) is conducting a yoga fair at Fort Canning Park on 6th Sep, 10am-6pm. Do come and have fun! We have vegetarian stalls, kids art competition, kids yoga performance, health talks, etc.

And most importantly - House Rabbit Society will have a small corner there, so u can come talk to us and meet our bunnies.
And I will do face painting (don't know why ~~) so come, brighten your day!

Candle burner




I like to work on details although it is time consuming. The effect is as expected so I am happy! I wanted to make fat bunny but there is no space already.


Bunnies in love


Starting to do more 2 bunnies item, need more consideration on the bunnies weight as too heavy may deformed the bowl shape. The rough clay is ideal for the purpose as it is very solid during firing.

coffee mug

i have not keep one for myself so far since i do not drink coffee but small size item is always cuter! Small mug with blue insider and a climbing rabbit, in rough clay.

Kimchi pot




I do not eat kimchi, but can use to serve any food too. The lid is reversible, so that it can stand as a small serving plate. I plan to make another one with wider opening so can be my noodle bowl with a serving plate on top, good for lazy one like me, can put some sauce, etc on the plate with the noodle with just one hand then.
Inside with blue glaze, outside with oriental flora painting. Rough clay at high temperature.

Salad Bowl

Testing new color effect and this is the result! sold

Salad Bowl

sold
I love to paint light blue flora pattern - this one is my dandelion plants (tampopo), my bunnies love to eat dandelion so I tried very very hard to plant myself. Normally it likes cold climate, but I have one growing, so I have to celebrate!!

3 legs small bowls with decorative handles


They are small bowls with 3 legs at bottom. Natural brownish clay with black dots. Glazed with light blue and dark blue respectively. I made the dried grass handle using my lemon grass growing in the balcony. I love the smell! Although it is decorative handle, it is also strong (surprisingly).

SOLD

Five Bats celebrating with Happy Bird Plate


Just one and only one plate, I like all Chinese myths and poems and this plate is inspired by the tradition - 5 Bats bring good fortune and good luck and the happy bird is for good news. To match, I added the chrysanthemum shaped handles and glazed with mat light blue.
SOLD

Homeless Rabbits



HRSS still has around 14 homeless rabbits at the farm. They are truly adorable and deserve a second chance. If you are interested to help fostering them or adopt them, please kindly contact me at amywoowaichi@yahoo.com .
Above pictures are Josie and Winter, the 2 really lovely bunnies has spent 2 weeks at my kitchen corner before sending to the new foster parents.
During fostering period, HRSS will provide necessary supplies e.g. pellets, hay, food bowls, playpen etc. We only ask for limited space, time and lots of love from the foster parents. The fostering period could be 3 months or longer.

Blue Rabbit Oil Burner

A really long break for me, back HK in NY, and the firing at workshop is extremely slow. My pcs waited for months before firing. This is the first pot out from kiln in the year of OX.
