Here are some plates out of the kiln this week. I enjoyed playing around with these. I've used dots of wax resist on the bottom one which has produced a fun texture.Today I packed a glaze firing with some test pieces. I am trying out some Spencroft clay so it will be interesting to see how it compares to my usual clay. Will be able to open it on Thursday.
Tonight I have been kneading clay from the clay pit in Kent. If I've got time I may throw some tomorrow but I've got quite a few chores to do ready for Farnham at the week-end.
I like the wax technique.
ReplyDeleteGreat plates Margaret! Good to hear from you the other day and good luck at Farnham.
ReplyDeleteThey just get better and better.
ReplyDeleteYou really are onto something [good].
If I manage to make Farnham on Sunday I am anticipating an empty stand when I arrive, your work there will be a "breath of fresh air".
Aaaaaaaah!
ReplyDeleteI've seen your fishy plates somewhere, wondered who made them, lovely. (I'm allergic to fish so I don't eat them, but I love the plates).
Wetherby? I think it might have been the delicatessen at the Horsefair Centre?
