Well, I'm missing a kiln loading at Maple Creek Artisian Center today because I don't have any pottery ready to load. :-( But I have been busy at school and here are a few pictures of pieces we took out of the electric kiln this week.


Small pot with Bone glazing and Bright Red drizzled over it. This piece measures 4 1/4" H x 4" x 4".

This pitcher is glazed with Bright Red and appears to have blue flakes in it, although I did not add anything to the glaze. This piece measures 6 1/2 " H x 6 1/2" x 4 3/4"

This bowl is a small cereal bowl size and measures 2 3/4" H x 5 1/2" x 5 1/2". The outside is glazed in white and the inside is Bright Blue. I dripped white inside accidentially, so ended up drizzling more inside, and I'm happy with the results. The white inside almost looks like silver. I've been using this bowl a lot!

This jar is a tradgety. It's such a lovely piece and I was so excited about it. I throw this style jar a lot, but not with this type of lid. It's not exactly the color that I would have liked for it to come out as - it's a celedon. The lid is much darker in color than the jar which I dipped one side at a time. The over-lap is the prettiest color and more matches the lid, but makes an interesting stripe. The tradgety is - when I waxed the inside of the jar to receive the lid, I did not wax far enough down. The lid was fired on the piece and stuck by fractions. Just enough to keep me from getting the lid off. When we tapped on the lid to break it free, the lid broke and parts of it stuck inside. I was able to take a chisel to the inside of the pot and get the stuck pieces off, and was able to grind down some of the uneven sections of the lid, but I'm still going to have to super-glue the broken piece back. Oh well. It's a learning experience!

This piece measures 7" H x 4" x 4".
