The sheen, the fleshy feel of them...for me glaze experimentation is an endless process of trying to find something that will be as appealing as that moment.Potterchikhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08636118097692465116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6961789.post-83300152831049095252008-04-22T11:33:00.000-05:002008-04-22T11:33:00.000-05:00Emily - great cups; can't wait to see them done. The perfect stage for drawing is my favorite... gets the nicest marks... For awhile I was photographing lots of leather-hard work, but wondered if (to a non-ceramicist blog reader) it all started looking the same, so I kind of stopped.Juliehttp://www.design-realized.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6961789.post-9111110229257572272008-04-19T10:05:00.000-05:002008-04-19T10:05:00.000-05:00Hi Emily<BR/>Thanks for the link.

One of the times I love the best is just after I have slipped a batch. There is a fascinating thing that happens with a group of like things. A friend and fellow NSCAD '75 student coined the phrase "gang authoritarianism" which I thought was appropriate. Your site is very interesting, thanks.Tim Worthingtonwww.earthenware1.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6961789.post-34927632012169352662008-04-17T09:10:00.000-05:002008-04-17T09:10:00.000-05:00Emily,<BR/>My favorite time to be at the studio is when everything is leather-hard and waiting to be trimmed/handled/stamped. <BR/>Great pictures of all the pots at this stage.

Thanks for sharing!<BR/>Often, as the clay is drying from "too soft" to leather hard, i get distracted and time zips by and suddenly the clay is "too hard"!<BR/>Happened yesterday. So it was most interesting to see your column today!<BR/>Hugs<BR/>Chaechaetoonshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03485798595700230162noreply@blogger.com
