  1. Playing with handles! #WIPWednesday

    The mugs themselves turned out quite simple, so I wanted to get a bit more adventurous with the handles. The last one is inspired by the flower-shaped clouds in SpongeBob. 🌝

  5. 5 - My 2nd ever #teapot! Wasn't too keen on how the #glaze turned out so here it is as bisqueware and greenware
    6 - My 1st successful plate (successful 'cause the 1st time I made one during the Winter session I accidentally cut through it 😆)

  7. #Pottery #Ceramics #Raku

    Raku pot from 7/25/2026 firing. I like the smoky yellow with black tape-resist lines. Raku is magical -- you never know how the fire and smoke will impact your piece. (photo attached)

  9. T.A.E.’s Book Review – 500 Animals in Clay: Contemporary Expressions of the Animal Form editor Suzanne J. E. Tourtillot

    An Ecological Bestiary in Ceramic Form The animal has always occupied a privileged place in the history of ceramic art. From Neolithic fertility figures to Chinese funerary horses, from medieval grotesques to Japanese netsuke, animals have served as symbols, companions, metaphors, and mirrors of humanity. 500 Animals in Clay: Contemporary Expressions of the Animal Form, edited by Suzanne J. E. Tourtillot and juried by ceramic artist Joe Bova, demonstrates that this ancient dialogue between […]

  14. This weekend is the Hilltown 6 Pottery Tour, of a group of nationally recognized potters based in Western Massachusetts. A few are opening their studios not too far from me. I've been out of town the past few years I was aware of it, so this year I'm looking forward to exploring a bit and checking it out.

  18. T.A.E.’s Book Review – 500 Ceramic Sculptures: Contemporary Practice, Singular Works editor Suzanne J. E. Tourtillot

    The greatest strength of 500 Ceramic Sculptures: Contemporary Practice, Singular Works lies in the paradox embedded within its title: five hundred works, each presented as singular. Rather than attempting to define contemporary ceramic sculpture through a single movement, philosophy, or aesthetic, editor Suzanne J. E. Tourtillot assembles a visual symposium in which hundreds of artists converse across cultures, techniques, and conceptual frameworks. The result is less a conventional survey […]

  22. Some pottery glazes act very differently depending on whether they're fired in the presence of oxygen or without it -- oxidation vs reduction is the technical terminology. One way to fire in reduction is to fuel the kiln with actual burning stuff like natural gas or wood. Another way is to put the still-hot fired piece in a closed container with combustible stuff. The piece ignites the stuff, the stuff quickly eats all available oxygen and creates a reduction atmosphere. This is the principle behind the Western version of raku.

    Well, I don't have access to either method, but someone recently sent me an insta showing glazed fired pottery being hit with a butane torch and turning crazy colors. I realized the torch must be making a highly local reduction atmosphere so I tried it out with some copper carbonate based aqua blue glaze on porcelain and holy cow, it worked! The piece of clay broke from heat shock, but I think I can avoid that by using a bigger torch (I only have a little dabbing torch right now) and introducing the clay to the heat very slowly. We'll see!

    Meanwhile, check this out! The first image is the oxidation fired piece. Next an action pic with torch and flame after the piece split from heat shock. Finally, the magical result. The photo doesn't really do justice to the complex metallic colors but you get the idea.

  26. I stopped by my local Goodwill store and my eye was caught by 2 pretty tea cup saucers. They were made by the Sango Co. in Japan sometime between 1945-1952 as they were stamped on the bottom, "Made in Occupied Japan."
    After WWII, Japan was occupied by the Allies until 1952. American soldiers stationed there brought home lots of stamped items as souvenirs. Since they are part of WWII memorabilia, easy to date, and of good quality, they are valued. #ceramics #WorldWarII #Japan

  29. It's not just acheologists that put shards together.
    Until the end of the 20th C. the 'Topfflicker' or potmender was a regular tradesman on markets in Central-Europe.
    Pots that were considered precious were put together using glue and clamps or put together with a knittwork of metal wire.
