Newest bestest yet!
This is my latest bowl out of the kiln... I really love it! The pictures need photoshopping to enhance them a bit, they look much better in real life.
Loads of blue crystals growing on the way down the sides. I love the way the manganese has run down with the runny glaze |
You can't really tell in these pictures but the middle is purple and looks beautiful in the natural light when the sun shines on it. |
New pots
These are some new little pots I have made. It's seems to be a bit pot luck as to wether I get crystals growing or not. It depends on the cooling speed, so if I use the big top loader at college full with work then I get good crystal growth. I had a very different result from the small test kiln. I had some AMAZING results form the front loader which takes AGES to cool!
And here is a little dish I made to sit them in |
You can see the crystal growth on this little one |
I'm loving this black chunky clay! I used 'creative adaptation of technique' (I pinchced this phrase from a friend!) by rolling out a flat base and then throwing a coil around the edge. |
