She's alive! My kiln is on, vent is running, and it didn't immediately trip a breaker so fingers crossed this goes well!!!
She LIVES!!!!! Just a few pieces in her initial test firing, but she's up and running! #pottersofbluesky #kiln #handmade #madeinaskutt #firstfiring #progress

My 20 year old @skuttkilns.bsky.social kiln has survived yet another move!🥳 Puppy lives!!! Up next- first bisque in the new place.

Unloaded a bisque full to turn around & load a glaze full.

It was a hot but fun weekend, now back to the grind. I’m hoping to fire off a bisque kiln later in the week once my stuff is confirmed dry. In the meantime time I’ll throw some mugs & cups so I can get a little head start for my next kiln load.

Natural stoneware tea bowl, made by pinching clay. The clay is still raw in this image. About 3.5" tall, with a rounded bowl shape at the base and sides that gently slope in towards the rim. The top has slight interruptions, these arise as natural textures in the clay arrive at the top of the tea bowl, and become an integral part of the structure of the vessel. These details were deliberately not smoothed out from the clay as I worked, so that the clay records both process and my choices, while exerting its own identity and nature into the piece. Also visible in the picture—some surface areas of the raw clay have dried paler. This is due to efflorescence, the result of natural soluble salts in the clay rising to the surface as the clay dries. This soluble material creates a little bonus glassy glaze on the surface, or sometimes a blush on the clay when it is fired.
Fired buff stoneware plates and bowls, with one glazed bowl at the front. Natural Alberta stoneware, with swirling, wave-like brushed black underglaze under a milky matte white glaze. Bowl is the perfect size for soup or oatmeal and fruit.
Love how these functional #stoneware #pinchpot samples turned out--left unglazed so that the audience at my talk could really feel the shapes, and see the textures left behind...right down to the creases made by my skin.

This photo shows a pottery setup just before a bisque firing. There’s an assortment of bone-dry mugs and bowls arranged outside a metal kiln, which is housed in a small shed. The kiln’s lid is open, revealing the interior lined with kiln brick. The pieces are neatly arranged upside-down on kiln shelves supported by buckets, ready to be loaded in. The mugs have varied handle shapes and some surface decoration, while the bowls have smooth forms. To the side, shelves hold additional kiln furniture and supplies. The whole setup looks well-organized and sunlit—great conditions for that first firing.
Firing off a bisque kiln. It will be half full so hopefully it will cool quickly. Need these for this Friday!

I'm going to call it "white sands and sea." It is a wide and shallow bowl 12" in diameter and about 4" tall. It was throw for a block of porcelain and then glazed and fired to cone 6

Time to test the new #glazes ! I oftentimes find myself enjoying this process more than creating. It’s very meditative and relaxing for me.
