I have the semi lazies today, only got the vintage car washed. painted the mailbox, ordered 13 yrds of fabric, started 4 paintings, pulled some weeds, watered, went to the store, played with Ru, ate a sammich, and told on some guy who was parked in the fire lane behind my house.

Me too ...almost...
It was bisqued and came out alright. We were doing our first glaze project 1 hour before it came out of the kiln so it didn't make it through the glazing project. Hopefully within a week.
Always forget to charge my camera batteries too...

Great painting Sophista
======
How about an artists rendering Mike?
I call it Luva for 2
https://www.dropbox.com/s/sukratcc3ynbq5x/lava.jpg
Bendy straws, fire and concoction not included. The volcano can be removed for cleaning. Actual glaze colors may vary.
I'm quite pleased with how it came out (so far, cross fingers for glazing), I may have to hammer out a few more similar pieces and try my luck on etsy/ebay.
I used Biz Bod clay for the bowl, a nice grey, low grog. And Mtn Stone for the volcano, red clay with a lot of grog. The lava and the tree trunks may stay base clay colors. Not sure, we have a nice dark red glaze but not anything really bright orange.
Threw the bowl and carved trees into it. The volcano was thrown in 2 pieces, the base and the 'shot glass' top. Then combined. The volcano has two slots for liquid transfer and 2 straw holes.
--edit-----
Arghh, Dropbox changed their layout and ever sicne it is impossible to get a link to work
