mug galore

have been practicing throwing & experimenting with glazing

speckled olive & speckled cream are my dream combo

tourmaline didn't come out how i was hoping

next time i think i will go much thicker with the application

of course had to jump on the black walnut bandwagon

it's a beautiful glaze, and i love the combo with speckled sienna

this one was absolute glazing chaos at the end of the day

and one of my fave outcomes

and a bonus bowl

love her

So I'm making small glaze samples, snail-shaped (the previous samples were square and flat and it did not tell me how it would behave on not-flat surfaces, and a good part of my work is very much not-flat - the glaze did not run here I'm just bad at painting precisely)

And since I didn't carve the glaze name on the sample I took pictures with the name of the glaze in it (for the close-ups I also have a readable version)

Here are: - one gray Botz glaze that I like very very much (no clue what I'll use it for but damn is it pretty), - a green glaze from Peter Lavem (I'll try to make it thicker and see how it looks but the "ancient" look is by design), - several Mayco elements glazes (I love the dark blue one), including one where I'm pretty sure the shop sent me the wrong one (I'll do one more sample with it to be sure I'm not the one who made a mistake) - and the Mayco matte glaze over two mixed Botz glazes (next I'll try without the mayco matte because I really like the blue-ish spots) and over Botz underglaze (ughhh - the underglaze is fine but I really don't like the milkiness of the matte glaze). (I can give you the specific references if someone's interested but I assumed you wouldn't be)
