Midnight Skies as I love to call this glaze combo us one of my favourites and go to combos. Using obsidian celadon as a background glaze then putting Smokey Merlot gives a wonderful maroon hue. Go a stage further by putting oatmeal on top you get blues maroons and purples.
I always think it looks like a mountain range at night.
Hope you enjoy. And please message me. I love to hear from you.

Thank you, Lois! This is such a beautiful combination. I just experimented a couple of days ago with Obsidian on brown speckled clay with Midnight Blue. (Waiting on the kiln to see how they turn out.) I wouldn’t have thought to add oatmeal, but maybe I’ll play around with that today.

Than you. I am struggling to get going again. A lot happened last year that was very difficult. But my husband broke his back in December. He had to have the top vertebrae pinned with two 10 inch titanium rods and I has been a serious journey. Mentally pottery needs a place back in my heart and I’m working very hard to get that back. These were filmed last October I would say. So still not there yet.

Oh LOUIS! I am soooo happy to see you’re back!!! My gosh these are sooo beautiful Louis!! I can’t believe how much they are alike. Love your tutorials so much. Do you fire to cone 5 or 6? I hope you show us the rest of the kiln load. It looks amazing.

Cone 6. Thankyou for your thoughts. I will get a new video up soon.

Thank you Lois for the great video! I find your video very informative. I too would have painted black, or used underglaze on the very bottom rim. I know it would bother me every time I used the goblet. 😊

Very instructive video. Had to use subtitles and slow the speech in order to understand but found it most helpful. Thank you for doing these educational videos!

@LoisHook 3 ай бұрын

Glad it was helpful!. I’m not sure why you felt the speech was fast. Did you watch it on double time ?? I’ve just checked and it sounds at normal rate to me. Thanks for the comment.

@@LoisHook It is your British accent that makes it difficult for my American ears to understand. But no worries, between the subtitles and slowing down the verbal, I am able to understand all that you say!

I am sorry to hear that and hope is now getting better and I know how difficult it is to get going 10 years ago my friends forced me to start again and I am so grateful for that so keep going Lois. Remember there is stuff going on that is out of our hands. Take care my potty friend sending healing thoughts. J

Lois, so lovely to see you back. I have a question. When you did the dish set for your brother, you showed us several combinations, especially with toasted sage. Would you mind letting me know if toasted sage always went of first, or the other color used went on first. Im trying to duplicate some of the colors. Thank you

@LoisHook 2 ай бұрын

I tried both. You can message me direct and I can photograph the cups. I still have them with the way I did the glaze layering. What’s app me. 07855194046

Absolutely Gorgeous ..... Love that glaze combination!!! What was the red bowl in the kiln glazed with? Even though there are issues with that bowl, it's still is stunning! Thanks for posting your glaze technique and kiln opening!

Thankyou for your thoughts I still have a couple of videos to put up. My husband broke his back last Dec and time has been difficult. Just got back in the pottery for a little bit but not totally their yet. This video was stamen last year. What time into the video was the red bowl?
