I'm a primarily hobbyist ceramicist in northern New England. My 🏳️‍🌈 and political content will probably remain primarily @ianmnoone.bsky.social, but not entirely. May get sweary
Considering that it's an industry that's patently (pun def intended) reliant upon a plagiaristic model, I'd say it's essentially guaranteed there are plenty

Just now seeing the autocorrect fail, and JFC.

Am I correct in thinking those are an heirloom variety?

My total sales for NY Sheep and Wool was 6 pots, so about 1/4 of what I had with me. Not spectacular but not terrible for being relatively new to it and at a festival not really focused on that, plus I got some really nice comments

It was 100% experimental, but it turned out beautifully

When I was digging this out of the creek bed last March, my mom said that somebody from a mining company had once approached my grandfather about mining kaolin on the property, which nobody had ever mentioned before

I had a chance to talk with Hitomi Shibata, who works with NC wild clays, at a conference in June, and she thought it had a good likelihood of being high fire based on her experience. I fired it inside a sacrificial bowl just in case, of course, but I've got a bunch of this clay, so I'm excited

Only ash that deposited in the firing. Otherwise it's 30 Minspar : 30 silica : 20 EPK : 20 whiting with 1% iron oxide

I did some others with the same base and 10% light rutile + 5% iron oxide

When I first saw the orb, I was thinking more Star Wars
a man with a beard is standing next to a woman and says that 's no moon .
Alt: Obi Wan Kenobi seeing the Death Star and saying that's no moon .

A few of the peepholes did not have cone packs, and one of my pots was right in front of one of those, so I got to see a little of my work in progress
