Small piece where I am (stillβ¦) chasing a glaze combination I happened across. Maybe it was just the randomness of the kiln gods, but I am enjoying the results along the way.

Cone 10 reduction.
A few views of a piece done in 2024. Cone 10 reduction. Paired with a piece in one view that was done a decade before. I love organic forms that play with contour.

Not sure what to call these, but I see them as small elevated serving dishes. This one the photo does not reflect the subtle hints of blue near edges and breaks.
