Recent Mugs

This is my first experiment with the earthen red clay. It took a bit for me to feel comfortable with centering clay again and making the pieces thin enough. Handles also presented a challenge, as I never was very proficient at pulling handles. For these mugs, I rolled out a thin slab and cut it into strips. However, that caused the edges to be sharper than I liked, and I had to do some carving and smoothing before the handles dried completely.
I bought three pints of Coyote glaze, using different combinations of Toshi Brown, Ice Blue, and Light Green Shino. I wasn't sure about the Toshi when the first pieces came out of the kiln, but when it is used in combination with another color, it looks pretty good.
Enjoy these pieces. There are more to come.
