Spring...New Pottery Pieces Underway
Hello! Yesterday a full load of bisqueware was unloaded from the kiln and washed. Today the plan is to wax the bottoms of pieces in preparation for glazing. It's an eclectic collection of work, for sure. Hoping to have it glazed and fired a second time, ready to leave the studio prior to Mother's Day! Here's a peek at some pieces: Pieces with text; this has a quotation from John Muir. For floral arrangements...or as someone else suggested, a mosquito coil burner, which we're likely to need soon. A large, wood-grained serving platter. Creations of different shapes, textures, sizes, purposes, and soon-to-be colors. Some pieces have lids, others not. All pieces are safe for food, microwave, dishwasher, and oven. None are safe for stove top or for extreme and sudden temperature change. There's a story here . . . yet to be told. Come back in a week or two to see if these bisqued pieces have transformed into glazed pieces, ready to leave the studio. Thanks for looking...
