[Ready for bisque]

All right ... yeah ... so I have studio envy. What a nice workspace!!

[first glaze firing in my home kiln!]

Love your sgraffito work!!  

[Two Cats]

This, right here, is my favorite. This I could see in my home. A little different in style than your other work I've seen, more modern, but just fantastic. Love the high contrast between the black/white/red.

[Firerose Goddess]

Looooove this. If you're having trouble getting the carving to show up properly, try a little more contrast in your light. You want all that texture to show up. I'd love to see that other side.

[Admiring the Flowers]

Absolutely beautiful

[Ripply Wobble Vase]

One of my favorite things so far.

[Ripply Wobble Vase]

It's done! I posted it here:

[California Wildflowers creamer, sugar, serving bowl]

Thank you! I love carving the leather hard clay.

[Green and Peach Nesting Bowls]

Thanks, Judith! Cone 5 Laguna glazes. Peach Blush and Spring Green. In case you decide to try them out, two tips: the green tends to be streaky when brushed and the peach doesn't complete at the top of the kiln (unless the result you WANT is satin) so I make sure to put it in the bottom half.

[Spiky chopstick jar with heart knob]

@Marko: check this out

 

The little jar above is my first and only attempt at one and it was back in March ... I want to try again because I'm 100% sure I can do better! LOL Among other things this little jar is so bottom heavy it's ridiculous. I thought maybe it would be a cute salt keeper for somebody's table because it's way too small to be a sugar bowl. 

[G.P. Hood]

This is ridiculously adorable. 

[Custom Wedding Pie Plate, exterior with slip trailed leaves]

The bride commented in her review that the leaves were part of the slip mold. But I worked so hard on them! LOL

[Sugar Bowl, California Wildflowers]

Thank you! I love the shape, I want to see if I can reproduce it. We'll see!

[Sugar Bowl, California Wildflowers]

This forum is awesome. I get a bit isolated so it's wonderful to connect with other potters.

[Sugar Bowl, California Wildflowers]

Thank you very much! This set is my current favorite and my first successful attempt at a separately thrown fitted lid. I had actually put a regular knob on and suddenly in a flash I knew I should do a mushroom so I redid the knob. So happy with this set.

[Autumn Leaves Pie Plate, slip cast (whoops, wrong album!)]

Thank you! I spent so long on this one that I pretty much didn't sleep the night of the glaze fire. When you see the inside you'll understand.

[Pumpkin Pie glazed pie plate]

Thanks, Marko! I will post more in a few days. This was a custom order for a wedding and I didn't want to post photos of all of it until the bride received it and got to see it first. I've added some details to the photo, techniques and materials. I'll let you know when I post the rest, this piece came out beautifully.

[038]

This is my favorite. Reminds me of a fall day. 

[M&Ds rear]

I really like your houses! I want to try making some cottage boxes with lift-off roofs. 

[Growth in my reclaim bucket]

I think that's probably a kind of mold. I pour vinegar into my reclaim clay and it helps keep the growth of mold, etc. down. 

[1700's inspired pitcher]

This is very, very cool. 

[Moroccan platters, slip cast stoneware]

I love slip trailing. I need better lighting in my studio though because I can only do this kind of work with perfect lighting.

[Tripod Pot]

Very cool! I love your surface texture!

[tree platter detail]

I have some laser cut snowflakes from Michaels', they make really nice stamps.
