These were also fired recently.

 I have recently completed some pit-fired pots, some are quite large - up to 26 inches tall. Here is a before and after picture of the tallest one.

This pot is compared below with another one pit-fired at a different time.

This year we have over 60 artists taking part in the tour which is in it’s 18th year. Dates are 17th and 18th April. Check the website for info on the artists & examples of their work.

We are at location 22 on the map. Hope to see you there.

These pieces were wrapped in thin copper wire, which is still attached in some places after firing. I hope you like them.

Pit firing went well today. It was sunny, but cold, even in Arizona. Here is an overview.

These hot chocolate mugs came out of the kiln on Thanksgiving Day morning. Some are green and some are blue and brown.

We’ve just had 12 hours of rain, but that didn’t stop me firing the kiln yesterday. Here are some of the results. No more meltdowns, thank goodness!

The tall pot is 14 in. tall. I also made one 26 in tall but it has only been bisqued so far. It just fitted into the kiln with 1 inch to spare! Fortunately it had shrunk down during drying from 28 inches. Making big pots is a challenge, and requires careful measuring!

After bisque firing some pots made with local clay, I decided to include three in a cone six glaze firing. Not a good idea. As the pictures show we had a total meltdown. This was Ohio blue clay obtained from 15 ft below ground level during the excavation for a new farm pond. I don’t think I can save the shelf, but I did save the stilts. Oh well! We live and learn!

I like to make bowls with broken glass inside. When the bowl is fired some of the oxide colorants in the glaze dissolve in the glass and produce interesting effects. Here are some recent examples
