Beautiful work JohnnyK. -
Thank you all for your kind words. Joseph, as you know, it takes time to sort out the glazes and how to apply each one. Pete's Seafoam is a glaze recipe created by Pete Pinnell. -
Hey JohnnyK, Around the rim, where the glaze is lighter, is Strontium Crystal Magic Cool sprayed on. Then Pete's Seafoam is sprayed over the whole piece. The SCMC makes Pete's Seafoam go turquoise. Depending on thickness of Pete's Seafoam, on non-SCMC areas, will result in the varied amount of splotches. The army green color is where Pete's Seafoam is thinner. Thank you

Nice save for this salvaged pot! Do see a little warpage or is that camera angle? Oatmeal glaze? -

Love the pastel colors. Looks like some crystal growth also. -
Thank You 1515art. -
Thank You Roberta12 and Denice. These are fun to make. 2 pounds of clay. -
SH copper Ash on the lip, SCMW spots on the texture, Waterfall Brown then Butterscotch.

Thank you, JohnnyK, yes it is. Glazed the platter then set the bowl on it to glaze fire. I'm thinking to get a better seal would be to put a little glaze on the bottom of the bowl also. There is 1 spot between bowl and platter where you can almost put a fingernail into. -

Yes OldLady, once you get the glaze thickness dialed in, which took me a long time, it all goes pretty easy and consistent. -
OldLady, Thank You. No handle on the other one. Satin Matte Green - I thought it was a Tony Hansen base but it is not. Not sure where I found this glaze. Over Strontium Crystal Matte Cool. The rim is SH Copper Ash. The foot is Hsin Matte Black. -
A sugar, dry creamer, wet creamer and serving tray.

Looking at Raspberry/ Cranberry glazes posted on the forum recently, I started copying them into the glaze software. I asked myself "Why am I doing this, I already have 2 very nice recipes." I posed this question to another potter which said "If you are curious you will always be testing glazes". That's the answer. That and "is the next glaze the Greatest I have ever seen?" I want to know what it will look like on my clay and if the new glaze is "better" than what I have tested before now. Perhaps Terrim8 has the correct answer, for me anyways, "till death due us part". Trying to pare down the number of glazes. Threw out 2 more this morning.

At what point in a potter's career does he/she stop searching for and testing new glazes? When does the potter become satisfied with his/her stable of glazes and says "This is enough"?

Chilly, did you make this from the plans in one of the ceramic arts workbooks?
