Yay glaze! Hard nope on the flopped hand. A good starting point though 🤔

Trying some bright inks in transparent crazing. Which do you like?

Lost to the waves of time.

I was pleased when she came out the kiln this morning, I wasn’t sure what I was going to get but I never thought it would be a seascape. A very happy accident.

Metal-infused mould casts are out the bisque! Looking beautiful.

Glaze some, reduction fire some.

I’m very excited. I’ve just finished leading a project that commemorates Stoke-on-Trent’s centenary and it will be on display at Gladstone Pottery Museum. Eek!

Someone burnt down a container cafe. It’s sadly beautiful and I’d love to recreate this on porcelain. #goals

The bicarb bricks have been vinegared. Now to let it dry again before we see how the kiln feels about it 🤔

What to do with a 60 year old, one-side of a handle mould? Make a cobalt porcelain bowl obv.

Pushing this further. 8 out of 15 moulds complete.

Elated over the fact my experimental artist professor said he’d never seen this tried before. 🥳

Crumpet clay fired. It has a lovely shine on the interior. So far unrepeatable. Ahh clay, you are both friend and foe.

Not the best background. I am pleased with my haunted handprint pot. Let’s hope the kiln is kind.
