Saints Bisqued In Cat Pee


These are Saints Rose, Milburga, Catherine, and Urban...and a summer solstice sacred plant icon (fern).  Since my kiln is in Atlanta and I am not, and moving bone dry clay is never a good idea, I asked my sister (who lives just down the road) to bisque them in her kiln.  Alas, and did her cat not pee (you would need to have sung in a church choir as a child to get the reference) upon the kiln shelves.  The pee burnt off in the bisque but the smell filled her home....and much of the mountain.
You never know though...cat pee could be the missing ingredient in amazing raku colors...I'll keep you posted!
