It has been a busy first month of 2015...

It has been quite a busy month for me. I've been doing some overtime at work but also managed to make new pieces (mostly mugs). Also to fulfil my list last year, I made 2 teapots during the last few days of December and assembled them in January. I think they need to have a couple of teacups to accompany them. :) I will need to make a new lid for this teapot as the gallery is quite small for this teapot and the lid can easily slide into the pot. I will be making bowls this weekend, hopefully I will have enough to fill the kiln soon.

Another disappointment :(

I was firing up my bowls for Ottawa Guild of Potters' annual event: The Great Bowls of Fire last night. I made 7 soup bowls, was thinking to use them to try out different glazing techniques with Ron Roy's Black and Mysterious Blue. When I was potting at the Nepean Visual Art Centre (NVAC), I had this lovely combination of NVAC's black with Mysterious Blue (as seen on the right). However, I've been having trouble with the NVAC's black recipe, so I went with Ron Roy's Black. It looks pretty smooth and all. However, it just doesn't have the same effect as the NVAC's black and mysterious blue. It's quite disappointing. Also, I might have made too thick of a layer for the black, it cracked a little too. notice the chip - this one is with the same technique as shown above) this one is done by pouring in mysterious blue on black Unfortunately, since the chipping is in the inside of the bowl, I can't tak...

January 2019

For the first month of 2019, it was started out very productive. I spent one Saturday and did up 6 plates that are mostly the same look and same size. However, after they dried up a little, I decided to only keep 3 of them. Unfortunately those were the only things I made in January. Now on to February.
