Warm weather has returned to my back porch studio which means I am back behind my pottery wheel! 😍
This is where it all happens: starting with a ball of clay to a finished glazed piece of pottery!
I’m actually behind my phone camera taking a shot of my studio surrounded by ostrich ferns.
I worked on mugs this week.
My back porch studio is open to all the elements including dandelion seed heads blowing in the spring breeze and . . .. . . Carpenter bees! This particular fellow kept buzzing around my head as I was attaching handles to mugs. So, I snapped! 😄Making handles for each mug on my back porch studio.
Because the weather has been so lovely, I fired up my kiln to test a new glaze. The purple glaze turned out well on the clay I use for mugs.
In the foreground are two test tiles. The test tiles are made with my clay and only fired once. Then I applied the glaze and fired the test tiles again. In the background are mugs hot off the wheel. The mugs are still wet and will air dry for a week to ten days. Once dry, they will undergo one firing in preparation for glaze then the mugs will be glazed and fired again.
