the swirls have it...


 This week is looking like a sort it out and gets things finished week!! With the large platters i'm testing a white satin c6 over the top of the green satin glaze that came out almost black and pushing the firing a bit higher another 20 deg to see what happens with this glaze combo..

and the monster cups got some slip trail action very thin 'black' lines, nothing like a nice swirl line...i'd run out of black powdered stain so did the old red iron oxide, cobalt carb, copper equal parts blend slip....it will prob turn out brown but that's ok the green satin glaze is going over these......should be noice


and more beige shino's getting the bisque action to see if some colour can be added by firing them in the same kiln with the raw pots..



thick was of white satin and thin wash of white satin glaze...
