First try today at “Pint and Pottery” at the Ten Sleep Brewery.
It’s the chance to decorate a pre-thrown vase with various glazes. I’ve never done anything like this before… but after some basic instructions from our local art teacher (who’s known for his Raku pottery), I was ready to try!
First, I used a tape to block out areas on the vase.
Then I applied three colors of glaze: crackle white, copper, and turquoise.
Now the copper could be black and the turquoise might have some copper in it… it all depends on how it fires and cools and I guess it’ll really be a surprise how it turns out! Where the tape was, it should be a grey from the smoke. It’ll be done in a few days and I’ll share a pic of the result! Of course I will!
Gorgeous!
Where do you get all of your energy? Also what was the class you taught at Meadowlark? I have never heard of that before and right now I can’t remember the name :py something?
Your vase is beautiful.
It is called pysanky. Type it in the search box on the right hand side of my blog, and various posts I’ve written about it will appear. thanks.
That looks really fun!!
