Ivy, in a pot, in a pot. . The pots were all made of the same stoneware in the same firing, only the combustibles and happenstance separates them. Well that and their shape! . #pottery #ceramics #clay #plants #ivy #firing #plantlove #potterylove

Pot deliberately cooked while a bit damp. Sprayed with ferric chloride, on a bed of sawdust sprayed with sodium chloride, some coffee grounds and copper wire wrapped around. The pot fell off the wheel and cracked in half before firing. The coffee grounds I think were too damp and adhered to the pot. Didn't expect much from the copper wire but the ended up with lovely red ribbons. . I have about a dozen tumblers ready to go through the process once I'm happy with the colours. Also once they are totally dry. . #ceramic #pottery #art #clay #colour #experiment

Why repair a broken pot? Because I'm learning from it. Looking at the colours, the firing and the drying. Plus learning shapes and forms. All a long process. . #ceramic #pottery #clay #learning #ceramicart #firing
