Kevin Eichner is a great teacher.
I just love the fire, can still smell the metal fire on me.
It smells so different from a pottery kiln fire
It is wonderfully different in its own way,
many more steps, but fun.
I also discovered that I will always make my orginals in clay - the wax does not respond like clay.
