What fun watching that huge porcelain/paperclay pot grow and grow. You do
lovely work, beautiful colors, nice and clean. I sea the ocean's coral reef
influence. Yes, I did spell 'see' as 'sea', deliberately. Thanks for
sharing. This is one of the greatest joys of ClayArt.

They are giving me a fit! but SO beautiful when they work.
Very finicky glazes, I am currently working hard to stabilize them, but am
beginning to think that is impossible! Touchy as to application and
especially firing techniques! Very variable results.

I am having a hard time getting good melting especially inside bowls!

Any ideas on why the inside of bowls do not melt, when inside a vase does?
I fire cone 10 reduction.

Help appreciated!

Thanks
