Joseph Fireborn Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 I don't need an extension. I am not really concerned about the finish, more about the challenge and learning. I will probably finish in time anyways unless it exploded last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High Bridge Pottery Posted January 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 Well I will finish it normal time but add your entry when it is finished and I can put into the results thread (if late) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Fireborn Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 My hydria survived my rapid drying carelessness and the bisque firing with no cracks explosions. I will be glazing it this weekend sometime. I am going to run some test first on some other pots since I have plenty of random yunomis that I don't like to glaze on. I thought about doing something silly and putting stick figures fighting with swords or something with iron stain. But then I was like, meh I have too many other important things to do. I am just going to try to layer some nice glazes together to create an older looking bronze green pot. Looking forward to seeing everyones finished projects all lined up in the challenge results!

Rebekah Krieger Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 Ack!! I probably won't make it to the 30th I can probably have it on the first but the 30th is pushing it. If the kiln cooled faster it would be on time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sue Edwards Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 I joined this community because the challenge inspired me. I'd love to see people's results even if after the deadline. I know that it will be several weeks, best case scenario at the community center before I can get it through two firings. But first it has to dry very slowly. I'm not sure it will still make it, but I'd like to give it the best possible chance. I'm looking forward to the next challenge too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebekah Krieger Posted January 31, 2016 Report Share Posted January 31, 2016 Ok it came out. I was trying to encourage cobalt bleeding but it was more of a dripping instead of bleeding. If I had more time I would have worked on the sculpture more. Final entry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High Bridge Pottery Posted February 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 I am a little behind on my own rules should have already posted the results but been a little busy. Will get it sorted tonight. I can't believe it has been a year already! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiselleNo5 Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 Ok this looked better as a vase. I am not one to adorn my work, but I need to try and make stuff that is not smooth. I had a fun time making this piece. I tried to use the element of water for this piece with all the tear drop shapes. I do not have an art background so design, color, and all of those types of things are pretty foreign to me. I will post a picture when it is glazed and it will be even worse. One day I hope to partner with someone who enjoys decorating and glazing thrown work but cant throw for anything. Then there may be hope for this potter. I think this looks awesome, I absolutely love the raised portions, it all looks awesome. I think maybe a shino glaze would look amazing with it, or a satin black or gunmetal gray might play off the "riveted" look in a really interesting way too. Btw, I don't have an art background either, everything I do is by the seat of my pants. I love texture so I'm very motivated to learn. The big secret is to just DO IT and keep doing it and each time there will be something you want to do differently. I look at my flowers that I carve and then I look at others' work and mine seems like a kindergartner did it, but I tell myself that one day my poppies will seem to be dancing in the wind the way they do in my mind.

Sue Edwards Posted February 6, 2016 Report Share Posted February 6, 2016 This looks beautiful Joseph! I was thinking of doing a combination of potters choice glazes to get a metallic look. But if it ever dries, I think I'll leave the pot clay body, and just underglaze the figures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
