New pieces fired and not.

Got this one back last week and liked the texture and colors, First I used a crackle glaze and with oxides. 2" slabs (4) of clay cut away to create the form. Cone 5
















This one is slab built using my great new mallet by David Ulschmid with www.wispwoods.blogspot.com.  Not fired yet, very thin side walls.
Porcelain cone 5 clay and banding wheel hand turned with rib to give very soft surface treatment (unusual for me.)

Winter at the coast

On our last visit to the SC coast I caught this one from an inlet fishing spot in last light of the day.

Natures Architecture

Just having a little fun at lunch playing architecture with some mud dauber nests I have fired over the last year.  These insects have habitat down to a science...I fired some natural, some with glaze, and some with iron oxides.
