I saw that happen to one of my students when someone put fine sawdust in the reducing can. It was scary. Sorry you experienced that from thoughtless grad students.

Being in a daily raku test group sounds like a damper on your aspirations. Not a fun thing to do.

Thanks for contributing. Haben't seen you here very often. I am starting to teach this semester at UT Brownsville. I would love to get rid of the 6 types of clay and a zillion glazes in the shop...but that will take time.

My Top Five Potters
Images added to a gallery album owned by Marcia Selsor in Browse Member Galleries
These are five potters who have influenced my tastes in ceramics from one time or another. The idea to list and review these came from a similar post on Clayart to list your top ten of all time. -

Taxile Doat ( 1851-1939 ) was one of the major figures of French ceramics at the turn of the twentieth century. Between 1877 and 1905, he worked at the Manufacture nationale de Sèvres in France and was among the artists who introduced the Art Nouveau style. He also opened his own workshop/studio and developed new techniques including the technique of grand feu enamel on sandstone . For some of his work away from Sevres he favored the Japanese aesthetic of organic shapes and running glazes. Then, in 1909, he taught at the Women's University, University of Saint Louis, Missouri and contributed to the expansion of artistic porcelain in the United States. -

I like the forum better than clayart as far as politeness goes. And not as sexist IMHO.

These are fired on edge and removed with gloves if they are too heavy for tongs. There are very special gloves that allow no heat to penetrate for 30 seconds. Marcia
