More Wheel Throwing and Handbuilding Stuff!

Today I was able to take home two pieces that were fired last week. The little shot glass and cup were covered in a low-fire glaze, amber and purple, but unfortunately my other pieces that were not covered in the low-fire glaze were not ready to take home. Apparently the kiln with those pieces in it had been turned off, which really sucks. I was super excited to see how they came out but I'll have to wait until next week. At least these two are done!

The shot glass...thing...was an experimental piece I did when a cylinder I was throwing collapsed on itself. I decided to salvage what I could and make something tiny and cute.

I made sure to glaze the insides.

This is a bowl my friend Tamika made. It's super pretty!

Got to glaze my horse head today. I chose to use a black, low-fire glaze on the mane.

And then I used the amber low-fire glaze for the body. Can't wait to see how it looks next week.

This is a bowl that my professor made with another student, but she wanted me to glaze it for her.

I chose to use a blue (yes, the white glaze turns blue once it's fired).

Then, I put black glaze on top (again, yes, the red glaze you see here is going to turn black once it it done being fired).
