Inspired by maps

I have also just taken a few more beads inspired by old maps out of the kiln, freshly annealed.  I have introduced a pale blue to the black and ivory combination in the new samples, to try and give them a third level of depth.    I will have to think about this idea for a while now before I make any more, just to make sure it really is expressing what I want.

I do want to think about how I am going to use more colour in this body of work though.  The museum is full of fantastic and very colourful objects but so far I seem to have produced work that is mainly black and white.
