I have a new email address that I would like you to use from now on. It is:

kyg@wizardsvalearts.com

The old email address will still work for another month or so but I plan to cancel the account for it eventually. Soon I will be taking down the westerlydesign.com website and moving (a lot less of) the content to the new domain here at wizardsvalearts.com.

In other news, I am finally ready to start working on chinas again in the studio! I am over both the “BOYCC burnout” and some travel in June. I will be doing both glazing of my backlog of bisques (which will be for sale) and casting new pieces in the molds. I’m not ready to work on any commissions; I’d prefer to glaze some artist choice pieces this summer.

I am slowly getting Roundabout resins. So far there are 11 of them out in the world. More will be on the way but not at any fast pace. My resin caster is caregiver for his spouse recovering from surgery so we must all be content to wait while the healing takes place. 🙂 I’m not advertising the Roundabout resins for sale in the larger “world” — other than this blog and the Facebook page — until I get a large enough batch in to hold a real sale. For now I’m just offering them here if they arrive in small lots.

Thanks for your support and patience!

All of the first 10 unpainted resin Roundabouts are now spoken for.

The next batch that comes in will be devoted to my UK buyers; if you live in the UK and aren’t on my list yet, they are $150.00 postage and customs PAID. Send me an email to reserve yours. This is a one-time offer as I’m working with a friend in England who is going to receive the one big box and then mail out the resins from her house. After this, if you live in the UK and want a Roundie resin you’ll have to pay the customs duty yourself. 🙂

I have to admit that the Roundie resins aren’t exactly flying out of here… but I know most of you are waiting for the chinas (I sure am!). Fortunately I don’t need Roundie in resin to sell out. I just have to sell enough to pay back the molding costs. I needed several good casts to send for china-molding so a resin mold had to be made no matter what. I will cast as many as people want to buy until the mold plays out. It might be that Roundie resin buyers will end up having a fairly exclusive edition!

Continue to watch this blog for news of the next resin sale. And I hope to have news of the bone china production in July. Many thanks for your support. Have a great summer!

It looks like I will be getting a batch of Roundabout cob resins this week. It might be as many as 10. I’ve got 6 of those spoken for as donations, gifts, and other commitments. But I’d like to sell the rest quickly if I can… I’m going out of town all next week and want to get them in the mail by Friday!

Because this is a small quantity I won’t be sending them to my Etsy page.

I DO allow customization of Roundabout resins. So you can go ahead and make him a “hairy” Gypsy Vanner or whatever!

If you want to buy one of these unpainted Roundabout resins:

•  You must pay in full via PayPal only, by Thursday 9pm mountain time.

•  They are $150 US postage paid. If you are in the UK please wait as I will be having a separate sale for you the next time I get a full batch of 10. But I will ship outside the US; we’ll split the cost of shipping.

•  If you want to buy, send me an email if you are interested (link below) and I will contact you with the PayPal instructions.
