Fusion Cross Part 3

Added some crushed glass or frit to the sections.

It's in the kiln and ready to be fired again for glass temperatures. I used some pretty mismatched colors of glass with some opaque and some translucent. We'll see how it turns out.

Raku Jewelry

I'm thinking of having another raku firing soon. Here's some raku jewelry pieces I made a while back. I need to decide which, if any of them, are worth putting on Etsy. I also have no idea what to charge. Any advice or comments appreciated.

Fantasy Shell

Went a little crazy on the colors. I kind of dig it though. What do you think?

2nd Cascade Vase - Finished

New name: Waterfall Vase

Finished vase after firing. I think the cascade areas look like a waterfall so I've renamed it. It's been an interesting and fun experiment using the clear cascade glaze under the colors of these vases.

2nd Cascade Vase -- Step 2

I've used the turntable to paint the stripes in a cooler range of colors than the first vase. You can see the demarcations of the underlying cascade glaze.

I'm hoping it runs fairly evenly. We'll see.

Also note the new photo backdrop. What do you think?

Experimental Vase part 2

It didn't run as much as I wanted. If I do it again I'll try 3-4 coats of the runny glaze instead of just 2.

And maybe bigger runny areas too.
