I’ve been busy the past few days getting stuff into the kiln. Here’s the results of last night’s firing.
I am totally loving the “sage” glaze; it’s sort of satin, with a stoneware look. It looks incredible on the terracotta clay. I have a couple of textured donuts in terracotta and sage that didn’t make it into the kiln last night, but they’ll be there tonight. I haven’t been that crazy about working with the terracotta clay; if I’m not careful when I’m prepping the pendants, the grog ends up exposed on the edges, making for a rough pendant. I’ve found a solution, so things are going better, and if the pieces are going to look like that….
Off to do some more glazing. I’ll have a table at the Mill Festival in North Berwick, so I’m trying to get another couple of kiln loads ready. Enjoy the sun!
