Dropped off a lovely little selection at today. They also have a wonderful ceramic exhibition on at the moment that I would really recommend visiting. So if you’re local to Swindon and need a cat fix (these are porcelain so extra precious) or just want a little trip out get yourself down there.

Big bowl in progress. I often get asked what my favourite thing to throw on the wheel is and currently it’s big bowls. This one is from 3kg and I’m looking forward to getting through its firings.

First slipware experiments have come out of the glaze and I looooove them. I’ve made my own slip for pouring and used stains for the colour. Recipes need a little adjustment but super happy overall.

Fun fact about me I currently have over 5 different types of stoneware clay on the go. These all have different shrinkage rates which adds complications when reclaiming. Mainly this means it’s a big risk to make pieces which join as the differing shrinkage causes handles etc to pop off and work to be ruined.

To combat this I make big pots with my reclaim if I don’t want to plan or think about it too much - the problem can be avoided by lots of wedging and keeping some of the same batch separate for the handles but space and how I work mean I’m much more likely to have fun and experiment with my reclaim and push myself to throw bigger or try new shapes.

I really enjoy this big pot and the throwing lines on the bottom section. I’m looking forward to firing and glazing it.

A few quiet moments at this weekends markets meant I got to take a few photos of some work and a few sun rays made me smile with these. I’m also having a day to rest while the kiln is on. Hope everyone has been enjoying the lovely spring weather 🌞
