marathon photoshoot...

marathon photoshoot yesterday...

5 hours later all the work from saturdays kiln load was photographed and catalogued!

it's been a mammoth week.. between work and glazing there wasn't much foot room in my studio and amazingly only 4 pieces didn't make it into the kiln..

 and the unloading went well only a few crawling incidents with the shino and the mystery clink that i heard when loading in the last shelf was a tiny piece of prop that landed in the smallest bowl possible and didn't even stick to the glaze!!

anyhoo here's some of my new tiles..

I'm heading up to Milan Rouge in Stirling today to deliver the exhibition work

The exhibition opening is friday night 6.30pm ... Hope to see you if you're in town :))

just some of the gorgeous colour response from the firing, some great contrasts and some really subtle responses from the satin shino.. and of course the touches of carbon trapping they make my heart smile..

just some of the glaze on glaze on glaze action for the pendants..

 

 and some new glaze tests, mr coffees white is very nice, it performed very well..

 and the last electric kiln was full of the fellas..
loads of plates, bowls of different sizes and teasets..

ahh my fav mug and a keeper!!
