Dry and Dusty

When Gary used to travel for work I'd ask him how the weather was and he'd say, "Dry and Dusty". That's been the weather the past week and it may continue into next week.

These are some quick shots of the kiln I just unloaded. I have got to get a better setup for my photos because the glazes on these ribbon vessels are much more rich and variable in person than they are in my photos.



 The mini ribbon vessels are a pleasure to hold in the hand.

A few of them are made from Standard dark brown clay. This brown glaze didn't do much on the clay but the first and this next two vessels the glaze reacted with the clay nicely.



 A new color for my leaves.

More leaves to keep up my supply.

Hopefully I'll have time to pack some of these for the farmer's market today. It's going to be dry and dusty. Thanks for reading and for all your comments.

  4. Photographing ceramics is so tricky. So much better to hold them and see with one's eyes all the nice textures/hues. Here's to Happy Customers and Sales, Linda!

    1. Hi Gigi, thanks, my slow cool firing that I program into the kiln really seems to help.
