And that’s a wrap folks! Tons of goodness out of the kiln today, I’m happy to say. And just on time for Christmas presents – phew! Here’s a few making of photos – more once everyone’s gotten their goodies. Happy holidays everyone!

Sphere cut cleanly at 1/3 or so, hole punched through, black slip over (looks almost like carbon fiber.) cylinder w/top and bottom cut cleanly at 1/3, top rounded to sphere, divot to hold sphere w/hole punched through center. Black slip again. Once fired, acrylic or plate glass will go in the cuts, with lights run inside and glowing out through the transparent material. Would have been nice to make the sphere fully solid, and use inductive power to run a led inside it, but I wasn’t sure what distance inductance could work over. Next time. How many hours at the studio yesterday? I lost track. Tons of good work through, despite a few pieces that needed to be redone on account of glaze going on too thick and peeling away as it dried. (Grr.) I finished by having some fun throwing geometric shapes. The cylinder and biggest sphere are going into a new lighting project. BTW: throwing a sphere is hard – it’s still not quite right, but prob as good as I can get it. Anyone have tips for this? |
