started cut as a hobby and has developed into a full- time passion which has practically overtaken a house The homo of Watson Tidy Ave Is overrun with ceramics and ceramic paraphernalia Theres and paints in one room and liquid clay slip a kiln and more paint in another room Theres finished products all over the place ready for persona use or be given away as gifts It nil started two years ago when decided to dabble in ceramics However she soon learned you cant dab ble Its all or nothing Its hard to imagine how out of a pall of pre mised clay comes beautiful figurines canister seta piggy banks childrens tea service you name it they can do it within the realm of ceramics They stay away from porcelains They are and her two daughters Mary Watson and Jane Robertson Bolh girls ore aa hooked as their mam and arc just as proficient at it Renee husband Tom also gets Into the act by helping to pour the larger Items The line is drawn on the family affair however with year old Tommy Janes son He Is about Hie only family member who doesnt get involved as much as ho would like Scven- baby Later MaryBeth doesnt pay much attention to the go ings on but her turn will come Renees shelves In one room ore lined with molds of various items If she has a high demand for an item it to her advantage to purchase the mold However many times she just buys the green ware the item ready to paint and fire To work from scratch will pour the pre- mixed slip into a mold and let it set for ten min utes After this time she pours out the excess slip and lets ho mold ait Tor a couple of hours with left In it forming the product Various pieces take different times notes but the average Is two hours After the time is up ho mold is taken apart and he item now for med is trimmed of its excess wilh a knife A lot of breakage can happen here Renee says so care must be taken At this stage it la called which can be purchased in any ceramic store a cost much greater than if poured at home However the initial cost of the molds makes it unreasonable for anyone hut the most dedicated The Is then left to dry When if first leaves the molds it is a dark grey color But when It Is fully dry ready be cleaned it is Mary cleans a piece of before painting a light grey all the moisture la gone Each piece must be carefully cleaned before doing anything else Scams arc unavoidable in each item and these must be off All lumps bumps are taken out at stage also Once the cleaning is finished there are two alternatives Sometimes an under- it is gltued Once the item is fired it is called bisque which is much stronger before the firing The bisque can be painted in several different ways including stains The second alternative is to spray it with a non- fired scaler similar to lacquer This is only done to items that are not to be handled too much Anything that water is going into must be glazed All of the Watson work is given a food safe glaze If a decal or gold lino is desired an extra fir- Eden Mills is necessary The kiln itself to a lay person is indeed a mystery Little cones control the temperature The cones about on inch long ore kiln Bitters and placed right in the kiln When the kiln reaches a certain tempera litre the cone bends drops down a small shaft to the witch and triggers the switch to turn it off Different cones arc used for different tempera tures ranging from degrees helt Once the kiln has been started it cannot be opened In fact even after it has shut off us ually after four-and-a- halfhours of firing it still cannot be opened far two times the firing lime If it is opened too soon the pieces inside will crack with the change of temperature The hardest part ceramics Is waiting to open that door says Nothing comes cheap In the hobby of cera mics not even the paints If a certain color is commonly used then buys in bulk If not the expensive small Jars are used The molds can cost up to new Sometimes they can be bought second- hand greatly reducing costs In spite of Ihc work and costs involved Mary and Jane and whatever friends are absorbed In their enthusiasm at the time find the hobby reward ing but challenging Ceramics is net he only hobby Itcnee into her busy time schedule She is often seen knitting for grandchildren and right now is working on a quilt for a Knox Presbyterian Church fund raising project In addition she teaches Sunday school at Knox as well as running a home for her husband and the two remaining offspring home Her time is as valu able as the working ceramic clock her group made and like the clock theres never a
