A little vase from the September firing. It's very crusty from being right at the front of the kiln. I'm never decisive with these pots about how much to clean/sand/grind off, but with this one I'm inclined to leave it.

Photo of a small ceramic bud vase. It is mostly glassy white with some areas of toasty brown from being wood fired.
Another photo of the same vase from a different side where more of the brown is visible.
A close up of the same bud vase. There is a reddish toasty, matte crescent shape in the center of the photo surrounded by a lighter brown and glassy white surface.
a quiet little bud vase

I'm a little ashamed to say I'm just getting around to cleaning some pieces from the last firing in September. The best ones always take the longest.

It's been a while since I've posted here. In the past few months, I participated in my first anagama woodfire kiln firing; it was an incredible experience and I learned a lot. Here's my favorite piece from it!

First partridgeberry smoothie of the season (apple from my neighbourhood tree too)! Local stoneware mug with the classic Malcolm Davis Shino glaze. A perfect start to a busy studio day.

Last important thing to do is play with the pretty fire

Got the kiln going early this morning. Sunrise just around the corner.

Some pots from the last Highlander wood kiln firing - mugs, salt pig, teabowl & breakfast bowl. My favorite piece is a serving bowl but I just couldn't get a decent photo that truly showed the liner glaze. #thistleglenpottery #pottersofbluesky #woodfiredpottery #flyash #flashing #highlanderwoodkiln
Chop chop! Now that the fire ban is definitely, officially over (for real!) it's time to light the kiln. I even checked with my local volunteer fire department chief, just to be extra cautious, and he said "Have at 'er!" New pots by the end of the week!

I moved all my plants and pottery outside! I love pothos because they're so easy and pretty!

It's "Fallback Friday" and a stroll down memory lane! An assortment of stoneware teabowls (some wire cut) from my no longer in existence Bourry-box wood kiln in NC - Tenmoku, ash, cinnamon and rutile glazes. #thistleglenpottery #woodfiredpottery #teabowls #tenmoku #rutile #ashglaze #mtlebanonpa
Brought home a Peter Brondz mug, brewed fresh coffee, and felt my life grow lighter. Its wood-fired texture reminds me of Alaska’s cliffs — like rocks and flames melted together, fitting perfectly in my hands. What a beautiful experience ✨🔥 #AlaskaArt #Ceramics #WoodFiredPottery
this is a porcelain tumbler from last year‘s wood fire. The ash glaze is made from trees on our property.

Finally got around to making a before/after video from the wood firing. I’ve never experienced so much joy from making so many terrible things 😂

'Leather hard' pots:the consistency chocolate. The pot is finished, so slips and glazes can now be applied (I don't do Biscuit firings before glazing). Leather hard pots just look so lush....
