glazed pots!













































































Some new pots here. The top two are a buttery satin white glaze that breaks clear with oxide washes of cobalt and copper. I really like where the cobalt mixed with the white and made little lavender crystals, something to experiment with later! the third pot down is my new bamboo brown glaze, it has a lot of great subtlety in it when viewed up close and personal!

Now for the bad... The bottom two pots are another local clay/ wood ash glaze like the bamboo brown (in different ratios) with an addition of copper carb. I added too much copper and mixed the glaze too thick so it had these bubbles that didnt heal over. I'm going to try adding some soda ash, mixing it thinner and reducing the copper... we will see.
