Phases of the moon on a black background on a ceramic plate
The Artemis II astronauts will return home having seen the dark side of the moon.

There's a change in color as this body dries
.
It goes from red in the bag (pliable) to yellow on the wheel (throwable)
.
Then back to red, then yellow as it dries to bone
.
Here we are, going from medium leather to hard leather
.
A mystery, but I have a few ideas
.

A plate that holds 6 eggs in a pale blue green celadon glaze
A ceramic plate that holds 12 eggs in a neutral off white glaze.
A ceramic plate that holds 6 eggs in a drippy green glaze
A ceramic plate that holds 12 eggs in a glossy green glaze with dots and flowers
Egg Plates? For Easter? Groundbreaking.

Debating if the lugs should come off
.
Firmly concluded a knob would be better than a strap for the lid, though
.
Still need to trim to fit
.
Funny, the proportions look too squat through a camera, just right through the eye

A couple of pilsner mugs
.
Midway through a set of four
.
Don't think I'll do these again soon
.
It's hard enough throwing the narrow form
.
It's a struggle to get a handle on when getting your fat mitts inside the cylinder isn't possible

Three-piece jar today
.
There are always slight imperfections to revel in
.
A little more refining, then I'll throw a lid
.
Handle across the lid
.
Trim
.
Two lugs
.
End the forever wars
.
They break people
.
And the crockery
.

More mugs
.
Thrown from Laguna's Amador, a very sandy, high Fe body
.
The reason for the different heights: I kept having to pull wooden splinters from the old, moldy clay
.
The mold increases plasticity, so I didnt mind that
.
Could have done without the splinters though
.

Coffee makes the world go 'round
.
Now bone dry
.
Lid and pourover trimmed to fit the coffeepot's gallery
.
No great insights today
.
Other than monotheism the result of extraordinary violence accompanying the development of the state

Coffeepot and pourover thrown from "Bruiser"
.
Still need to trim the lid and the flange on the pourover to fit the gallery
.
But that needs to wait until the clay is hard leather

A handmade porcelain bowl glazed in shades of blue and purple
Today's kiln prize!
I also made a bunch of matte pastel cups, but they came out streaky 😒

The warm grey tones of my Beach Rocks wreath vase do compliment his silver tabby colors very well.
I did not know a model was necessary for housewares, but J'Zargo makes a very good point, he is a handsome cat. #studiomanager #model #cat #tabby #pottersofbluesky

The glaze looks more blue than green or turquoise. Background matters.

Layering is one way to go when wood firing
.
Two slips, then biscuit
.
Just added black mason stain
.
Next, I'll wax the circles along with the leaves and stems outside the circles
.
Then, glaze
.
VCAA blue or green oribe
.
They'll go in the soda chamber
.

You can tell which of these got the zebra treatment first
.
Three layers of slip
.
Troy porcelain with a rib first, Suze Lindsay black with a needle applicator next, Helmer with an atomizer last
.
More, more layering
.
No dumb Trump wars
.

Beer ready. It’s rough out there, but this trio is willing to help you forget about it for a little while. #pottery #pottersofbluesky #wheelthrown #amacoglazes #ceramics #trumpsucks

Felt loose so why not slap some mason stain on work in process
.
Likely hide the marks with oribe
.
I'll spray Helmer over first though, in case I decide to keep the "don't care" ensos/badly-executed biohazard symbols
.
As a lesson to practice first

A wall hanging wreath vase in my Beach Rocks design, with red and white flowers
My work got to be on its own table, with wall hangings on the beams!
This is the first time I've gotten to actually put flowers in this shape, and I LOVE IT!!!
Such a great space, I have the tagine from my Throwdown series, a few small bottles, one of my wreath vases, and a nice little orb I threw a while back
The first pieces out of my own kiln are at Oasis, in downtown Waterville. I couldn't be happier! A few ideas that have been in my head for the last several years finally came to life! #pottery #pottersofbluesky #artshow #newwork
