Post hip replacement surgery and restrictions lifted I am back in my studio with new work (yes I had issues) to show. Pieces are mostly Opulence dipping glazes and some Amaco brush-ons. Thanks to those of you who reached out to me during my recovery. ❤️🌹😎
Note: soup mugs are Laguna 391 clay with Jess Chun BLUE (not plum as I say twice)

Thank you Sally, us potter’s always have a excitement and dread opening a glaze firing 😆 But you have some great successful lovely pieces to be very proud of. I teach a few people a week and have had a few pieces with pin holing, so I’m going to re~fire them 🤞

I’m so happy you are back in the studio. I’ve missed watching your kiln unloads, and also you’re straight to the point thoughts on the glazes. I also love how you plunk the pots down and get the next surprise out of the kiln. The first big bowl was a stunner, and the last big bowl was close to perfection The inside looked like a flower. I’m glad for you that you no longer have to use the cane, it’s such a pain isn’t it? Thank you again, and hopefully see you soon.

Yup, just a little crawling on the Antique Iron, refiring will take care of it. Great kiln unloading, congratulations.

Re firing has fixed it in the past. So definitely will do that.

@SallyRoperPottery 5 ай бұрын

Jess Chun Blue seems to be the only glaze I like on this dark clay. Opulence dipping glazes are NOT suited for it. Will try some other options.

Chun blue is the only glaze I have consistent results using 391 clay. I need to try some of my Amaco brush on glazes,

@lindapowers6405 5 ай бұрын

@SallyRoperPottery I'd love to.see results! I have not used that clay but it's very pretty! If you want to... try textured turquoise (amaco) cause it's beautiful on darker brown clay!

Glad your back. I saw you won something on clayshare con. You mentioned the cobble stone was thick. I beleave that is why to glaze crawled. Espicaly on the big bowl. Love your videos. I am jealous of your location as it's 35°f /1°c here in detroit. Rest your hip. I noticed the limp. You'll get there soon. Thanks again

Yay!! I’m glad to hear you’re on the mend!! Nice kiln opening! Too bad about the problems with antique iron, boo. Id add more glaze and refire for sure! Your handbuilt mugs were soooo nice! Love that roller. I really have to get that sea spray 😍…I have 391 and struggle with it! Love that idea of adding slip to the inside! Did you say Chun Plum was the glaze? It’s so blue?? Love them!!! Thanks for sharing!! Cheers

I corrected glaze name on 391. It is Jess Chun Blue from Clayscapes pottery. I too struggle with 391, have a bunch to use up then never again.

@rebeccasatko3571 4 ай бұрын

Sally so good to see you and to know that you are doing well. I watched a video of yours from last November where you had made a couple of beautiful lamps for 2 customers and mugs for a resort out of your very dark brown/black clay. My question for you, on the mugs you put B-mix slip on the inside of the mugs, did you make the slip yourself? Absolutely wonderful pieces and take good care.

@Mariede425 5 ай бұрын

Oh Sally! SO HAPPY to see you back, and up and around! didnt know about the surgery, but it seems to have worked its charms! Keep your strength up but DO NOT push yourself too hard. Us "gorgeous senior ladies" (Im right there with you) have to pace ourselves which is NOT saying that we're taking it down the slow road, but remember that turtle! (beginning of 2024 seemed rough on alot of us...I came down with the gout in of all places-my shoulders (its SO HORRIBLE) so I couldnt do anything (no wheel, no hand building, nothing!) anyhoo...then I was just diagnosed with PRA as well as RA but the meds my Dr put me on are miracle workers. So just stay strong, you have many many many many followers and we want to see you back AND HEALTHY most of all! Take care, your fan from Holmdel, New Jersey USA ;-)
