Vase of Bone

This is not really a vase of bone even though it's a common ingredient in clay... but the celadon on the top half of the vase really looks like it.

Wood-fired Vases

This is some of my wood-fired pieces, these are also some of my first vertical forms:

Other side of the vase.

Wood-Fired Large Vase #2 

Wood-fired Medium Vase 

This probably did not reach cone 10 in the firing but it turned out gorgeous.

Experimental Glazes

Below is a celadon glaze I mixed from scratch. The other side of the pot was facing a vase coated with granit, some of the pieces fell off onto my pot forming the lumps you see.

Celadon Experiemnt #2 

This was a shino which may have not worked out.

Milky Bowl 

This cup had all three of the glazes I mixed.

Crazy Mug #1 

This is an upside down bowl I had to fire twice. The first time it came out it was taffy green I then I fired it again in an oxidation kiln and it ran like crazy. I broke off the foot rim which you can see at the top. I took a photo of this upside down so you could see the relatively interesting glaze.
