Today was by far one of the most productive days.

Turning-I turned 3 bowls one of which are very fond of and has 2 strips in the middle which I turned. I wrecked my plate bolide created add a problem where was not attached to the will properly and it flew off and cut half of it in half, I have now learned my lesson and all bowls must be firmly attached to the wheel before turning it on, I also must not put so much pressure on the tool. This destruction of one of the bottles gave me a chance to practice some spiralling grading by gently moving the tool up and down bowl as the wheels spinning. This created an unpractical decorative peace. I had an interesting discussion with a third-year fine art student and we decided the chair to be delicate with pottery and that we were both heavy-handed so had to be extra hard. Unfortunately this discussion came after glazing my bowls.

Glazing- I decide to go with the 2 coloured Tip Glace, this was inspired by my designs I used turquoise, Black and white.

step 2-mixer glaze with hands or a state. The grazers I used was solid at the bottom and I really had to go at them with my hands to mix it all together. I noticed that the glazes were not the same colours as they were after they had been fired. The turquoise was an orange, the black light grey and the white was just like. The heat on the  glaze when it is fired melts and become shiny.

Step 3-when dipping the bowl you have to be extra careful to not touch the great too much the more you touch the glaze the more of the Glazer comes off, it is best to leave the object you're glazing in for 3 seconds then to put out again.

Step 4-leave to dry

step 5-when touch dry, touching as little as the bowl as possible to the other half in to get the 2 different colours. Touch up the ball very lightly to get rid of any drips it is very delicate, and a fingertip is almost like sandpaper to the grace to be very gentle.

Step 6- pick up the bold carefully and get a clean damp sponge and wipe the bottom of the pile to it is the colour of the clay.

Step 7-Fire glaze in the kill

The heavier the fear of glaze the darker in colour and the more covered it will be when it melts.

I wasn't too careful with my glazes as it went into the kiln looking a bit messy file will know that the next time to be more careful. You can be relevant experimental leisure Niger what they're going to come out looking like. I'm excited to see my outcome.


Final out come of three bowls:
