these were developed from an idea of using small tiles in a sagger with a pot. The byproduct was intriguing and this is the result for more finished pieces.-

You are use to and enjoy madness. It makes life interesting.

did you see my latest photo in the gallery. Sulphates and chlorides in saggars. I used what I learned from foil saggars and fired them hotter in ceramic saggars.
-
Yes, I have been following the progression. Tough to see pictures now, after the software update. When I click pictures, they come up cut in half, with text overlaid.

transplanted lupine and lilies on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. the flowerbed was below my studio window and I am having it replaced and better insulated. More snow tonight and tomorrow.

Obvara fire, surface treatment created with sodium silicate on a cylinder then stretched into an orb. -
Got a surprise opportunity of no precipitation today. if the wind isn't too bad, i'll be firing all day.

I prefer quiet and the sounds of nature. Even my heaters are silent. I have a dog and two cats for company. Nice view out the window looking at the ski runs on the mountain. I use to listen to classical guitar years ago in Texas , but then I grew to prefer all the birdsongs down there. I heard a new bird song one day and discovered love birds ( real name) in a palm tree. Here I heard the song of a new to me bird. Pairs of sand hill cranes flying around the neighborhood. Marcia

The fires raging in OK are signs of the draught. We are expecting more snow later this week. I am going to fire saggars all day while I can. The last snowfall missed us yesterday but dropped 10" on Great falls to the north.

wow- haven't heard anything about that up here! Forest fires kind of spoiled our summer here last year (for hiking in the mountains & general air quality)

We have tried to vacation in Colorado for several years, but have gone to other areas. Colorado has been plagued with fires, rain and mudslides. This fall we are heading to Yellowstone! Denice

more snow. Free workshop at the Red Lodge Clay Center this weekend. Out of town potters coming to stay with me. Matthew Kelleher and Shoko Teruyama from Alfred, NY. Nice community asset!

how deep is the snow?

Hoping for some rain today to wash away the yellow snow (pollen) that's covering everything in central NC right now. Azaleas and dogwoods are in full bloom - daffodils and lily magnolia blooms are a distant memory. Although expecting a low of 34F tonight.......

just checking to see where you are. Great falls was colder than here 27 F right now. Yesterday it was 45 and the day before with snow was 9-12 F 3 inches but disappeared by afternoon.

snow, snow snow! this weeks weather forecast. Need to shoveling my way to the kiln shed to unload a bisque.
-
Yep, one inch on the ground, 3 to 5 inches forecast. March madness and April Fools have a different meaning around here this year.
-
12-20 in our forecast by Tues.. Used the snowblower for the current 4-6 on the ground. By the time I was done, you could hardly tell. I could open the door to the kiln shed. Will shovel again when its cool enough to unload. It was at 690 F.

books for many things, but it is surprising what youtube has as well as the daily videos on this site. There are clips from the many dvd produced by ACERS on Ceramic Arts daily. noe Ceramic Arts network. Use the header to open access. Marcia
