I have a trash can filled with bird seed. I left the lid open, and the next day found this little guy in there. Definitely a metaphor for something...

Eating lunch today out of my beautiful Fiestaware bowl. Last year I help them develop some glazes that they developed into the Fresco line. But today I was eating out of it and was just impressed at how spectacular it was! #fiestaware #fiestawareaddict #ceramics #johnbrittpottery #johnbritt #dinnerware #fresco #fiestawarefrescoisawesome https://ift.tt/2SrpE1d

This glaze is called Kitchen Sink Matte and in the color run with 0.5%chrome it kinda looks like a shino in electric on a dark body. Pinholes and all. Will post the recipe later...too tired to get up and get it.

As I was getting ready for my Dayton /Cornell Studio Workshop on cone 6 glaze I plotted some glazes I researched for non-crazing at one 6 on "most" bodies and noticed how much tighter they were than the Stull map. I then did the same with other "limits/targets" noticing the variations. It is interesting to see.

Post a Comment

Got a few beauties out of the firing. I will post more later. Headed to Dayton Ohio for a Glaze Workshop at Cornell Studio. If you know of anyone who would be interested there are a few spots open this weekend.

As you can probably assume, I'm not much of a skin care guy, but I got this cream from a potter in my class last weekend and it's actually awesome. I'm not making any money off of this either just so you know... it's just really good stuff. Caramaeskincare.com

Got a few spots left in a workshop outside of Los Angles next week. It's going to be very unique one where we're going to just explore sculptural surfaces for a week! We have 15 people so far but are hoping to get 20 participants so we can have more results to work with. Should be a lot of fun! If you don't mind, please share with your sculpture friends!
