I made a soda ash wash and I absolutely love how it turned out on this test tile! I hope the effect will look as beautiful on different texture.

Square photo of a small test tile with wavy texture on it. The tile has a beautiful variation between orange, yellow, light blue and gray on it from a soda ash wash in a reduction firing.

A friend of mine who has been coming over to learn to throw on my wheel wants to make a French butter crock. I am vegan and have never felt a need for one in my kitchen, so I’ve never tried it before. Today I threw these in an attempt to teach myself to make one before coaching him.

Wish me luck!🤞
Square photo of two greenware clay vessels on wooden bats. The one closest to the camera is a cylinder on top of a wider base (this will be the top of the crock). The vessel farther away from the camera is a slightly wider and taller cylinder.

feeling simultaneously stunned, blessed, and stressed to be living a life where this is what my homework looks like in my late 30s

Square photo of a jack-o-lantern that has rotted from the inside, so its face is distorted, it’s sitting atop a wet pool of its own gloop, and the entire thing is leaning to the right, so it resembles the melting smiley face emoji 🫠

Thank you, @chatpileband.bsky.social, Hayden Pedigo, and @theflenser.bsky.social for the beautiful and timely record.

Well, shit. There’s my problem. Ann Ruel made it look so easy!
SLIP FOR MOCHA DIFFUSION (A) Cone 04-12 Oxidation or Reduction Feldspar ... 5 % Ball Clay ... 75 % Kaolin ... 10 % Silica … 10 % 100 % The thickness should be similar to room-temper-ature motor oil. A liquefied porcelain clay slip usually will not work well since a porcelain body typically contains a maximum of 50% plastic clay material, and the rest is non-plastic fluxes and fillers, such as feldspars and silica.

The cover of Timy Curry’s new memoir titled “Vagabond: A Memoir.” There is a photo of young Curry in black and white on the cover. His curly hair is swept up in a gust of wind and his jacket collar is popped. He wears a long knitted scarf and appears to be reclining on a dock.

PUNKIN TIME! 🖤🎃🍎
A photo of 5 people sitting on a tractor trailer during a hayride. They are all very cute and huddled together with smiles on their faces. An instant analog photo of the same 5 people sitting on a tractor trailer, but this is a candid photo and Mando is laughing really hard.

Okay, so my first attempt to throw a hollow donut form turned out kinda weird, but I mainly wanted to show off the vintage 70s apron my partner’s mom got me.

A photo of Mando sitting at a pottery wheel in an open studio. There is natural light coming in from the window they are facing and they have a small smile on their bespeckled face. The wheel in front of them has a sort of a bubble bowl-like form on a wooden bat.

I did abysmally all by myself last time, but here I am alone again.

Like my journey in ceramics, failure only fuels my desire for more horror trivia.

Mmm, delicious failure.

A trivia sheet sits atop a dark countertop with a pen on it. There is also a food number 38 on a metal stand and a cider on a coaster next to it. There is an impressive number of shelves teeming with films on VHS behind the bar. The film The Fog is playing on a TV above the bar. There is a neon sign that reads “CULT CLASSICS” in pink in the background above the bar.
