Working on making new green and blue glazes for landscapes.

The last of the firewood for the coming winter. Will have to get more.

Getting ready for winter - water supply in the buckets and fan in the window for when the wood burning stove fills the room with smoke - which happens every once and a while.

Susan B Anthony, 2014, glazed porcelain, 4.5 inches high. I love having her in my woodshop. She doesn't put up with nonsense.

mary carlson glazes

While waiting for the new kiln I've been organizing glazes. This will make it so much easier to find what I'm looking for.

Sadly my kiln that I got on ebay for $300. is beyond repair.





08/11/2015

Kiln loaded with new birds. I hope the kiln makes it. I bought it used and have repaired it numerous times. I think it's from the 1970's.

Listening to Proust - I didn't realize how often he speaks of flowers in "Remembrance of Things Past" - and working from the flowers that are just blooming. Heaven!
