Y'all I'm so excited to be able to fire some high fire ceramics! I've only had things fired to cone 5 on an electric kiln, but these are being fired in *actual flames* in a gas kiln. The glazes do much cooler things at this higher temperature.
Several years ago I took some ceramic courses and became 100% obsessed (bought a wheel, a kiln, etc). Now that Mari is a little bigger I decided I might have time to take another course again at the university. There just isn't anything like the motivation and inspiration that comes with an actual class. I'm taking a handbuilding class this semester. This vase was made on the wheel as something extra outside of the class.

This is a shino glaze fired in a gas kiln to cone 10.
I'll share my handbuilding project soon. It's the kiln right now.
