Beautiful shino mug. I play with % of soda ash added to Malcom Davis Shino recipes, adding up to 2 - 4 % more for crawling effects and add Oak ash to shinos to get them to crawl even more which looks awesome on abstract sculpture - see http://www.starrartconsulting.com/starr/ in my west Berkeley Ca ceramics group studio - the wonderful Potters' studio, 35 years and still going! nice weather in CA for drying pots outside too :-)
ReplyDeleteBoth of those shinos are beautiful as are the cups. The crawly one is so husky looking to me fitting the crawly glaze and the next more delicate, very nice.
