These breakfast bowl pairs came out of the recent ^6 oxidation firing. First pair is a brown glaze with an accent spray of ash glaze; second pair is solely dipped in ash glaze; last pair is a Mamo glaze & crystalline accent spray. #pottersonbluesky #thistleglenpottery #cone6oxidation #mtlebanonpa

Made this set of 10.5" stoneware dinner plates for my son and his family. Spray applied an ash glaze. Fired to ^6 in my electric kiln. #pottersonbluesky #thistleglenpottery #stoneware #pottery #cone6clay #mtlebanonpa

I hate photographing glossy pots! In any case, I've been experimenting with spray applied layered glazing in my electric kiln. Gonna take a while to get the right combination of glazes but it will be a fun ride. #pottersonbluesky #thistleglenpottery #cone6oxidation #cone6glazes #mtlebanonpa

A few matcha bowls from the recent ^6 oxidation firing. Ash, Nuka and Mamo glazes with a secondary glaze spray applied over the Mamo. More images of pots from this firing to come... #pottersonbluesky #thistleglenpottery #matchabowls #cone6oxidation #mtlebanonpa

Opened the kiln today. Now it’s time to evaluate glazes. I did some spray applied layering of glazes this time…

I spent the past week working on a new teapot using reclaimed cone 10 stoneware clay. It's the most complex form I make with 5 separate components. It will be included it in a future electric kiln firing. #thistleglenpottery #pottersonbluesky #teapot #stoneware #mtlebanonpa

Been a while since I've made any pots. Made these 6 altered noodle bowls this morning - ^6 stoneware. They'll be included in the bisque firing later this month, glaze fired next month. #thistleglenpottery #pottersonbluesky #cone6stoneware #noodlebowls #mtlebanonpa #standardceramicsclay

I've been at this for about 26 years and I still struggle with pulled handles! I prefer a handle that accommodates 3 fingers inside, many folk prefer 2 fingers. Not sure how many fingers these will accommodate when finished #thistleglenpottery #pottersonbluesky #stonewaremugs #cone6clay #mtlebanonpa

Been a while since I've been in the pottery workshop. Made a series of bowls in red stoneware for my 17 month old granddaughter Mia. I'll use a variety of glazes to make it interesting for her. #thistleglenpottery #pottersonbluesky #cone6clay #standardceramicsclay #stoneware #mtlebanonpa #bowls

Some stoneware bowls from the recent firing. Having previously fired my pottery in wood and gas fueled kilns for a couple of decades I'm still trying to sort out firing in an electric kiln, particularly the glazes. #thistleglenpottery #pottersonbluesky #bowls #stoneware #oxidationfiring #mtlebanonpa

An experiment with brushed on granular slip and oxide washes. Honestly disappointed with lack of color from the oxides, probably due to the use of red clay. Might try again with a lighter clay. My wife likes them so there's that 😉 #thistleglenpottery #pottersonbluesky #oxides #clayslip #mtlebanonpa

Glazing day! Working with ^6 today. Applied liner glazes. The red clay pieces will receive an oxide wash on the exterior, the other pots a variety of glazes and some brushed on oxide washes on top. #thistleglenpottery #pottersonbluesky #cone6stoneware #oxidewash #standardceramicsclay #mtlebanonpa

The last of my stoneware pieces from the recent wood kiln firing - vase, teabowls and flask vase. All exteriors were unglazed going into the kiln and came out with a glaze from the fly ash. #thistleglenpottery #pottersonbluesky #highlanderwoodkiln #woodfiring #stoneware #teabowls #vase #mtlebanonpa

Something new for me. Brushing slip (some with sand) over the exterior of these pots. Used a brush, sponge or reed brush. After bisque firing I'll use a number of different oxide washes on them. The results will dictate whether I make any more 😂 #thistleglenpottery #pottersonbluesky #cone6oxidation
