The pieces from my 1st wood firing (anagama kiln), embellished.

Testing and prototypes, single fire cone 6 electric; these are just reference snapshots-not great for color accuracy.

A few finished pieces from a load of mostly molds. Cone 6 electric, commercial bodies and glazes.

Samples from a mixed ^6 single fire-porcelain & stoneware of varying thicknesses; commercial underglazes/glazes.

Tightened up placement of materials and supplies and made better use of working space. Room is about 10 x 12. This is the former bedroom in a mobile home. Kiln and more working space is on the back porch-no heat, but it protected from the elements.

Cone 6 fire of mixed bodies, tho mostly procelain, some refired pieces, and an assortment of item types. Will add more as I finish them and phtograph them (well, the best of, anyway).

The Hidden Mask Series (HMS) is about surviving prolonged severe physical/emotional trauma. Specifically C-PTSI; Complex Post Trauma Injury (not "disorder").  Derived from different contextual episodes (i.e. from being an armed robbery hostage to  domestic violence to severe mental health conditons to surviving natural disasters etc.)  over an extended period of time. The "masks" are primarily "selfies".  Intended to at least partially represent some of the journey toward a functional, stable, healing. Here is the link to text about each mask, on my website (blog section )  https://www.leeuceramics.com/single-post/hidden-mask-series-hms
 

Mr. Turtle and the Red Rattle.  Some pieces I'm showing at the Gallery at Well Sweep, Hillsboro, NH. It's a small exhubit featuring clay toys and musical instruments. I have a few rattles, my Mr. Turtle pull toy, and 2 little spinning tops. 

John Baymore and students built the Fushigigama kiln at the NHIA Sharon Art Center, New Hampshire.
