And.....xmas morning! I like the cone 04 - the pieces feel a little more sturdy. I may do a test on midrange clay to see if it affects glaze. Anyone with any thoughts out there that is willing to share would be greatly appreciated.So now we are ready for the pitfire - all I need are the winecoolers!
Today's mug is kinda cool. I bought a set (yes there is a set of 4 of these in my house) at the holiday art sale at SUNY Brockport last season. This student's work really spoke to me - I bought several of his pieces. Plus he was there to talk about his style - I'm always a sucker for that! Anyway, I just loved the idea of serving guests tea, coffee or even a beer in one of these altered mugs. They're probably more 'cup' than mug - either way they are cool!
Off to trim and put handles on the mugs. The studio is finally cool enough to work in.
Cheers!
