I've upped my glaze game a bit (as well as experimenting with when not to glaze).

Can we just refuse to adjust our clocks next time?

Funky little vases and a planter. I'm a big fan of functional pottery, it gives me great joy every time i eat out of one of my bowls or use a mug... but decorative vases can be so satisfying to make.

Some things with handles! The first is only 6oz and is maybe my favorite size and shape. I should have taken the pre-fired dimensions as I'd love to recreate it.

A few more pieces that I dig the results of. I'm excited for the next few batches as I'm throwing a bit larger and more consistently. I have a few vases, which I've yet to trim, whose shape I really love. Fingers crossed i do a decent job in glazing.

My first glaze attempts have come out of the kiln! I'm particularly into the white and red bowls.

Playing with some homemade laser cut ribs. The coffee cup needs some cleanup that i didn't catch before pulling off the wheel.

Destined for destruction. After sitting for the past few days and with a new slew of vessels i like more these made the trip to the reclaim bucket.

Got my first Bisqueware from the kiln and have started experimenting with some more shapely vessels. More pics on pixelfed: pixelfed.social/octopope
