Wall art results

I posted about my work in progress on the wall art the other day. This weekend I emptied the kiln and this is how they came out.
I used mangan Oxyde to color this but I forgot to color the tears which will be hanging on a piece a thread so I'll finish this off next week when they are fired.
I used koperoxyde to color this which was a bit of a risk as I didn't have a test tile for this. I'm not completely satisfied with it as I think it's too light at the top. So I'm pondering if I will add some mangan oxyde to it and fire it again. To be continued.
I just love how this one came out. I thought it would be more blue but I'm glad it isn't actually.
There's just enough blue for the creative feeling to dream away...
What do you think about the results? :)

    I really like seeing your work because it's something I have no concept of, and could never hope to learn in this lifetime. Even the products you are not quite satisfied with are treasures to me.

    my favourite is the second one. the dark colour really helps with the details on the tentacles.

    OOOH Mitsy that firs tile (the one with the sad teary feelings) is BEAUTIFUL! I think everything about it is perfect and I can not wait to see the colored tears on it.

    Oh man, really that is the best!! Wonderful Job :)

    Anonymous, the bubble one is reserved already. I have a new one, different though, in the kiln for being fired the first time. If you are interested in seeing or reserving it, please contact me through Etsy. ;)
