Blue Fumed Ware

Back again after a month.
After NCECA my youngest son, Arjan, was home for springbreak and we celebrated his birthday. I prepared the taxes and the 3D show for the Gallery House. The show will run from May 30 – June 24 (www.galleryhouse2.com).
I still have to update my website: www.swanceramics.com.

I used very coarse thermal shock resistant white clay for this work, because when the glaze firing cools down, I take it red hot out of the kiln and fume it with ferric chloride. This gives the iridescent shine.

Some pictures of my work:

Fumed “Hat Bowl”, 8″ x 8″

Fumed “Landscape
Impressions”, 19″ x 9″

Fumed “Waterfall Plate”,
14″ x 1″
Fumed “Long Neck Vase”,
2″ x 1″
Fumed “Pod Vase”, 11″ x 6″

See you at the next blog, about my return in Kamakura!
