Kiln Results 5/18

March 22, 2024

This kiln is a bunch of experiments and new things. The new puzzling vase forms came out amazing as did the vases that were extruded. For a couple of the extruded vases I used my glaze chips on a vertical surface for the first time. Not going to lie I was worried they were going to pop off. I had one tiny drip, but with my advancer shelves it was no issue at all.

The new luminaries are awesome as well. I did some tests with Georgie's interactive pigments on Laguna 60 that make me wonder why it's taken me so long to do this. I think I like the satin glaze with the glossy chips slightly better, what do you think?

Also there was a lag in when I glazed things to when I put them into the kiln. I've stopped writing things down and I think there are a few things that are going to have fallen out of my head in that time. We'll see how well I do at remembering glazes.

Laguna 60 Clayscapes Cream painted on. Clayscapes Coastal Blue poured.
In retrospect Coastal Blue needed 2 coats to get what I was expecting, but I'm not complaining with what I got

This is just bad. I tried to pull out the tree and the roots with different Georgies pigments and then use Eggshell wash. It's just garbage

Kiln Sneak Peak 5/18

March 19, 2024

So much goodness in this kiln! And the first kiln in a while with a ton of new glazes so it's a big mystery. The "pillow" vase in the back looks amazing. I'm also excited about the drippy one on the far right. That's the first time I've used the glaze chips on a vertical surface. Both of the squiggle luminaries look awesome.

Finish cooling kiln! https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6WPcoOSCWYuyoyEf84rCsBQRKl7f5H96vpRytC4t4Tvo_VD6PcBrTUO-4i3SdLGtmSKg1z0KkuEISubpWruy7X5E-BPTKiYM3MjYWNy3w2j47hFeSrPYu7UbP1idX6lfhoVMO6RGjk6y4rwNiJLDTx7CYIJje605VlP5iWTo7f5tEXhELtMYcLFi5-fDT/s4032/970407E2-F647-4993-B79A-567BEE836409_1_201_a.heic

The ginko came out so amazing! The glaze has depth, but somehow still didn't lose the texture. I'm so happy with it. The lavender isn't new, but the shot glasses are. Somehow the lavender always makes me feel somewhat peaceful.
