Just beautiful glaze combos. I was a full time RN for 42 years. Got my RN to pay my clay bills. So hard to be an artist on your days off from Nrsg when so tired. Now full time clay artist making up for lost time

Thank you so much!! I use Magical Mist a lot in combo with other glazes, it creates such different effects each time.

Just loaded my first ever kiln glost firing this afternoon. Very limited on my glazes at this stage & cannot wait to unload late Saturday afternoon. Dinner party at our place early Saturday evening, it's going to be a tight turn around but I could not imagine a more fun thing to do after delicious wine & food but getting to see what has actually eventuated. Sharing your opening of the kiln & a full explanation of each glaze is so incredibly helpful. Kia ora, from New Zealand & thank you so much for sharing your knowledge

OK, so I LOVE the wallflower pockets, along with your sgraffito trinket tray - awesome work on the sgraffito! CFE underglazes are awesome, Paula McCoy has some great videos on them (both on glass and ceramics) You did really well with the design! You have so many great pieces, cant wait to see more of them! Also, you mentioned you are a nurse, God Bless. Thanks for posting, Regards, Marie DeMarco from Holmdel, New Jersey ;-)

I love your colours very similar to my unloads. My fav glaze is reactive red but it always runs badly! Your first mug is gorgeous n looks like it didn’t run at all. How many coats of the rr did u do please?

@SoulHavenPottery-gt2gf Жыл бұрын

Thanks! That was the first time using Reactive Red for me! I used 2 coats to bottom half of mug...yeah, it didn't seem to run except where the Hot Chowder ran into it. I'll be trying it again but different application technique

@marycarolyn1293 10 ай бұрын

I really enjoy your videos! I’m curious about the beautiful plates. If the sunflowers are a rolling pin, how did you keep the edges smooth?

@SoulHavenPottery-gt2gf 10 ай бұрын

Thank you! I appreciate that! So I use GR pottery forms and you flip the textured slab over onto it (texture down) and you do have to not press too hard when molding the clay around the form because it can smooth out the texture…but if you’re gentle it stays 😊 might be why my plates warp though, because I’m afraid to compress them enough.

@SoulHavenPottery-gt2gf 10 ай бұрын

Hi again @marycarolyn1293...I was just reading your question again. I think I didn't read your question right. I see you are asking about the "edges" and what I did on the edges was I put a disk over the center to cover where I wanted to keep the texture, then I removed the texture from the edges by smothing the clay out with a rib...I think maybe this is what you were asking? :)
