K. makes awesome glazes, just saying. Since my first projects came out of the bisque a couple weeks ago and I've begun glazing, I've gravitated to mostly use shadow green and K.'s beautiful dark royal blue for the main body, with black and white/clear added as accents.

The middle bowl shown here, however, I sorta went crazy on. The inside is either blue or shadow green, with the "tomato red" over the yellow,=yellow speckles inside, and I think the outside is whatever color (blue/SG) the inside is not. It actually came out looking pretty cool!

Yush. Moar. Moar shtuff. MOAR SHTUFF!

I think I was using bagged clay by now, and I'm now fully back into the rhythm of throwing after the summer.

Enjoy!

Alrighty! These were my first batch of projects, within the first and/or second week. We all used clay from the mixer for the first few weeks, due to a shortage of new bagged clay. I was surprised how well it worked; thee was some trouble with foreign particles and airholes, but not always as bad as I feared, though I do still prefer fresh bagged clay.

Not that it's a bad thing!

But yes, Ceramics once again. I'll replace this with a proper blog later; for now, this will do.

A quick progress report is in order, I suppose. This is the third week - I'm pretty sure - of school, and so far I have five bowls ready for bisquing, and another two made yesterday and now awaiting to be popped off the vat and footed. The latest duo were made with bagged clay - finally! And oh my gosh, I loooooove using bag-clay.  It was so easy to center and open, and though the second bowl was a little more difficult, the first one just went smooth as silk. It was absolutely lovely, I say it true.

Anyway, as said I'll get the properblog set up soon, and add some pictures once that's up. For now, time to throw!
