Around 1 month before my annual show

It's only about 1 month left before my annual show.  I have to say that I am probably at a better position now than this time last year.  However, I still have so much to do before the show.


I did a glaze fire last weekend.  The mysterious blue still wasn't very good especially with the following 2 pieces.  Guess those won't be coming to the show with me. 
Brushed on another layer of mysterious blue, but didn't turn out.

Another one with extra layer of mysterious blue and didn't turn out.

This is another mysterious blue which mixed really really well (stirred for a long time in the bucket) and dipped for 8 seconds.

Pottery girl has been quite productive

Like I mentioned last time, since I didn’t have a show in December and didn’t spend much time outside this winter, I was able to spend more time in the studio. As a result, I actually have some finished pieces ready! I opened the kiln earlier this afternoon for my second glaze firing of the year (can you believe my 2nd glaze firing in April, this has never happened before)—here they are (sorry about the lighting…). The bottom shelf, the initial picture didn't work out and I had to take another one 2nd shelf with pieces that I did slip trail.  This is my first time doing this and I quite like the result. 3rd shelf  Top shelf  I’ve also been trying out a new look for my mug handles, but they didn’t make it into this firing. Hopefully it won’t be too long before the next update!

Last firing before the show

One last firing before the show, and I’m happy to say that every piece turned out beautifully.
