The glazing is messy...I have another project (not the one below) which I'm working on; hopefully, the glaze would come out better this time.

One of my projects in Ceramics I. Glazing is so difficult...It looks messy, but I'm learning.

I like this picture

the Japanese maple was doing so well, then there were two cold days that burned a whole bunch of leaves

my day lilly...

my remaining fish... :)

my little fish are getting bigger, but...

So far, I had about 12 fish that died...hmmm...don't like this... :)

I fed them too much after the winter...the faster they grew, the more I fed them...I finally got the amonia/amonium/chlorine down, but now the pH is too high...I think my biggest fish is going to die soon...
