Some hand built pottery

(1/2) > >>

Zuma:
I am glad to see potters posting here. I have always enjoyed ceramics and hope to get back into it.
Perhaps with the neat help of folks doing wood firing. A labor of love imo.
I tried my best to copy some Native styles.
Any and all discussion of ceramics welcome.

YosemiteBen:
check out: From mud to music they have a book and website on making ceramic instruments. Also google - Susan Rawcliff - she does some pretty cool ceramics.
Z - your stuff looks pretty cool.

mullet:
Also, Joyce Payne in Alaska. Does some cool classes firing with newspaper in garbage cans. She is an old and dear friend, and good.

Zuma:
Super, Ben and mullet. Thanks for the info.
I will check this out.
Here is a lady I admire as well.

Ceramics kept one of my heroin's alive for 105 years. lol


"It was at this time that she bought a pair of baroque plates with a luster glaze. She wanted to find a matching teapot to go along with it, but was unsuccessful. Deciding to make the teapot herself, she enrolled in a ceramic class at Hollywood High School. This hobby turned into a passion that would last over the next sixty years, as she developed a unique form of luster-glaze technique that proved successful"

Lovely stuff! I really like the two-mouthed pots, what's their purpose?
