Kiln Results 6/4

June 09, 2022

It's been a while since I've had kiln results and there was a backup on my shelves. There is another kiln already cooling while I post these results. This kiln had some WOW! and some Meh.
There is a lot more vinyl resist in this kiln load. I'm still making bear stuff. Bears on Brown Bear clay makes me smile. The bear on the pitcher is my favorite piece in the kiln. I really wasn't sure it would work because it was so ornate, but it came out amazing. I also had never used Midnight Ceramics glazes on Brown Bear and took the risk - they did not disapoint!
The Meh is my chip and dip platter. I don't know what happened to the pigment, it just didn't pop at all. I might try to reglaze or maybe just make another one. If I reglaze I'll lose the texture, but if I can make it something I don't hate it might be worth it. Also this pretty much takes up a whole shelf so is it worth it if it doesn't work? I don't know, thoughts?
