Used to be a moderate, apparently I’m now a flaming liberal. I have a pottery studio and way too many glazes and no idea what I’m doing with it all! I’m learning as I go!
Try clicking on #pottersofbluesky and #blueskypotters I found a bunch of neat potters that way! :) Welcome!

I’ll try it soon, thanks! 😊

Oh my gosh, yum!! I love paneer, but it intimidates me a bit… Not sure what to do with it or how to do it! 🤣

So cute! Also, I love all your test tiles in your header pic! I usually do popsicle shaped ones from a slip mold I made with them, but I’m going to go with the smaller ones like yours so I can put them on the jars! (I LOVE testing glazes!)

I’ve seen videos on water etching, but none so detailed as your posts here; they’re very nice. :)

Laguna B-Mix is a workhorse!

Very nice!

I prefer hand building, as well. I’m a terrible potter! What porcelain do you use mostly? I’ve been using a Laguna and the Sio2 Black Ice. That fires so gorgeous, even unglazed!

That’s pretty awesome for your morning coffee at your desk or in a meeting! I also love (mostly, it’s a bitch to throw) porcelain. Nothing else fires that beautifully!

Hahaha! That’s awesome! 👏

The last time I went to church, years and years ago, the “preacher” said “You can NOT be moral without Jesus Christ!” (Also bashing Catholics, which I grew up as, but that’s another long story) Anywho, that was the last nail in the coffin of my faith. “Christian” Trumpers buried it.

It is! I have some crystal forming glazes going in this load. I’m going to do a hold and slow drop on them and see if I can get them to form. My last load was a dud with a basic cone 6 slow fire. Time to get sciencey!

Oooo! That sounds like a good time; I love experiments! Thanks!

I’ve been reading up on the paper clay porcelain; I think it’s going to be my next purchase. Thanks so much! :)

Slabs, mostly! I made a couple of my nick-knack shelves with them and they cracked at the joints sooo bad! (B-mix shelf shown)

Jesus Christ, he has to have a small dick.

So beautiful, but… Sweet little bluebirds are anything but quiet! 🤣 Noisy little twits! (Yes, I feed them in my yard! ❤️)
