Shot Glasses or Tiny Cups

I love making these tiny little cups. First, they are easy and quick. Second, they are great for testing glazes. Third, they fill in spaces between the bigger pieces in the kiln.

All fired wheel thrown, stoneware clay, fired to ^6 in oxidation.

Buff Stoneware clay with various glaze combinations:

Bowls Are Few and Far Between

I just haven’t made a lot of bowls lately. Cups are a higher priority right now. I like the shape and they are a easier to glaze. Since I’m still mostly experimenting with glazes the cups have been much more in demand.

Here is one small bowl that I really like. I love the shape and the glaze is nice. Jen’s Juicy Fruit over Dark Brown on the outside. I wish it were a little larger.

Dinnerware Sets for the Local

I hope this post is the first in a series of new posts about some of my recent work.

A few months ago I was asked to donate some pottery to the Local in Goshen for a fundraiser. They sold tickets to a catered meal served on pottery made by local potters. After the meal, the guests got to take home their handmade place settings. For each set they asked for a dinner plate, salad plate, bowl and cup. Here are some photos of my donations.
