so my weeby site is dipping its toes into 2013 and when this heat subsides a tad I'll be dipping my hands in a bucket of reddy brown water and making more slipware. I think your kitchen will celebrate well with all these lovely fresh earthenware pots. And who knows the new forms that will come out of this years studio..
Sooo loving that earthenware, especially the hint of blue around the outer edge, very pretty! Send us some of that heat, rainy and cold here!
ReplyDeletemmm I know trace, having so much fun with loose brushwork on these too.. please feel free to grab a handful of the warmth 44C outside right now that's about 111F wooohoo..
ReplyDeleteWho needs a kiln? Just put those pots in a metal can and set it in the sun for a bit.
ReplyDeleteLooking good! I always love to see what people are doing with earthenware. What temp are you firing to?
ReplyDeletehey dennis who knows 8 hours in a can might give a low fire response!
ReplyDeletehey smarts, these guys are fired to around 1100C in my electric kiln
Really great to see what you are up to with earthenware, your brushwork and decoration looks really part of the piece. Hope your summer temps come down to something more sensible! Must be so difficult for you to get much done at the moment.
ReplyDeletethankyou peter, I do enjoy it and feel I'm making the deco process mine now.. the last couple of days have been mild and yep getting out there today for a studio warm up..
