2010-07-31 Saturday - Clayworks

Saturday I was at Clayworks working hard again.  I glazed a bunch of bisqueware and made a new pot.

I am having a lot of fun with the little loafers cone 5 stoneware.  It is a white clay and allows me to play with the translucent glazes we now have.  I am making mostly functional pieces and throwing lighter than I have in a while.  I would like to play with the little loafers some more, but the cone 10 kiln is calling to me like a siren.  I see more cone 10 work in the near future.

Oil lamps, boxes, mugs, yunomis, creamer trays, and a butter bell.

In an homage to Ju-Ian
(who left for Shanghai for an extended stay)
I added leaves to my pot.
