And while daytime feels like spring, at night I'm grateful for the cosy warmth of our wood burner

Handled
.
Need to go over the silhouette with a straightedge
.
Just a tad bumpy
.
A little too narrow at the base, too
.
Looks like something the pedopreznit might send to Tehran to distract from his pedopreznitting
.
Next one: broader base
.

Fourth and final ring on this five-section pot, thrown with 26.5 lbs/12 kg over a few days
.
Trying to look past the imperfections and cramped proportions
.
Liked the first one better
.
Maybe handles would help

Looking down into the kiln at the unlit campfire topped with an offering of flowers

It was a couple of perfect days for a woodfire in Wisconsin #ceramics #woodfire

Third section attached
Fourth will have to wait another day or two
.
The one thrown last month is up on a high shelf awaiting biscuiting
.
That slight bump at the rim?
.
Shouldn't be a problem

This time I waited two days after throwing the 8-lb base
.
It was leather
.
Threw a 5-lb ring and immediately inverted it on top of the base
.
For large vessels, it's about a pound per inch in height
.
Two more rings to go
.
Should be two feet tall when done
.

Base and first section of a multi-part pot, thrown with eight and five lbs of a white stoneware, Sheffield's Wood Light
The ring section is inverted on top of the base. That's a bubble level on top of the bat holding the ring section, to aid in making sure the parts are joined plumb
Bat is now wired off the clay ring. Uh-oh. If you look carefully at the port side silhouette, you can see some slumpage agoin' on
Back to square one. The pieces were a little too wet to work but I tried to throw them higher anyway. Mistake, obviously. I tried wiring off a few inches, but the problem was really at the join. You can see the wall gets thicker intentionally toward the foot, to insure sufficient support for the weight of future clay above. The extra is trimmed off at a later, drier "leather hard" stage. Not this one, though!
Things don't always go to plan in the studio
.
Impatience is an issue
.
Going fast = breaking things
.
And you're back where you began
.
Good thing it's just clay

Flowers need bees
.
Coffee pots need pourovers
.
The smaller one still needs a trim to fit the gallery
.
Have to wait until it's drier
.
Otherwise it'll shrink overmuch, rattle about
.
A tolerance of a mm or two, no more
.
Patience, patience

Easy to look
.
Hard to see
.
Music a balm
.
Clay a solace
.
Slipped coffee carafes and a water pitcher
.
I could have practiced strokes and enzos a little more before dipping the brush in black slip
.
Anyway

Much improved
.
The taller of the two knobs is a little too
.
But hands down these lids beat the previous two
.
No USN "hospital" ship is heading to Greenland
.
I've witnessed Danish health care and experienced the USian version first hand
.
Danes win
.
Hands down

It's curious
.
Sometimes you do things on automatic
.
And then ask yourself, what? why?
.
Those lids need to be ¼ the height
.
Probably just re-throw them
.
Speaking of throwing up
.
We're in a constitutional crisis (tariffs)
.
Add it to the other ones

Started two coffee carafes and a pitcher/jug
.
Thrown with 4, 5 and 6 lbs, respectively
.
Not done with deco on the teapots, but I ran out of colorant for a Ruggles & Rankin green slip
.
Break up DHS

Invoke the 25th Amendment already

I put feet on the squat one to lift it
.
Sprayed on helmer
.
Next comes RJ flashing
.
Might try a black slip for framing, à la Cathi Jefferson
.
Tried to show you the stained glass tea leaf filter on the small job
.
Taking too much time
.

Not yet happy with the spout, but the strainer between it and the body looks like a hidden stained glass window, so there's that
.
Shadow line at the foot is ok, but legs maybe?
.
Need to cut down the lid, do some cat licking, then slip deco

After skeeting those blue barrel mugs yesterday, the teapot that went with got me thinking about making more
.
Threw four spouts (it's been awhile)
.
But only two lids
.
Off the hump
.
Softly squared the bodies
.
Kushner needs jail time like his daddy

What the barrel mugs from yesterday's skeet will become, with planning and luck
.
I have to make more teapots so I can brew a fitting drink to quaff out of those imagined mugs
.
Wood and soda promote a depth of surface on which a boat can float
.
Mine anyway

Freshly-handled barrel mugs
.
They don't look so good now, but it's just the start
.
They'll be biscuited, then some black brushwork and wax, followed by a VCAA blue or maybe oribe glaze
.
Call your senators, tell them to defund ICE and CBP

Viewed from certain angles it appears ok
.
Just like the Democratic Party
.
But in reality, it's barely acceptable
.
Just like the Democratic Party
.
I'll work with it, hope it improves
.
Just like . . . you know what, by now

Sprayed a flashing slip, added some brushed mason stain (plus finger-swiped porcelain on the beer steins), then blew a different flashing slip over that
.
Say no to turning warehouses into internment camps

🔥 Forget charcoal — FIREWOOD is the hottest trend in global gastronomy! Sparked by Spain's Asador Etxebarri, the movement reaches Japan's countryside where chefs cook with local wood in renovated farmhouses. Flavor revolution!

A two-part section pot/moon jar
.
Needs to dry some to turn it upside down to trim it, so the foot is only a little wider than the neck
.
Thrown with 13 lbs, it weighs ⅔ that now
.
Kegstand Pete was in Bath today
.
He got properly hooted

Utensil holders
.
One plain, one with doodad, two with handles so they can double as beer steins
.
I'll spray them with slips, line the interiors with glaze
.
It feels like we're riding the crest of an historic wave of shit
.
Don't fall

What’s the best wood to use for clean smoke when cooking?
Remember, all wood is not the same and even all hardwoods are not the same. Here's why.

Future utensil holders
.
Think I might pull handles for the two on the right, have them double as beer steins
.
Each thrown with about a kilo of Sheffield's Wood Light
.
I used to simply enjoy throwing
.
But it's become a refuge

I prefer a 16,000 year-old technology to AI
.
Nobody ever tried to control his fellows with pots, AFAIK
.
Jōmon man had fish stew parties in the mountains far from the ocean

Does the humanity leak out of us like one of your cracked stew pots?

I'll pour a liner into those six mugs from the other day, let the flame and ash have its way with the slip and brushwork
.
Finger-swiped Troy porcelain and brushed RJ red Fe deco slips over RJ flashing slip over S182 clay

No Miller internment camps

Probably pour gold shino inside and out, as the iron deco should show through
.
I wish my hand were steadier
.
But then ash and flame should make up for what the hand lacks
.
Oh yeah
.
Fuk ICE (and every other goobermint paramilitary)
