Glaze Mixing Mayhem

My day, sigh.
I've been working on simplifying my process of glazing so I've been slowing retiring old glazes and consolidating glazes, over 100 glazes is too many!  My frugality wont let me just chuck them out, so I've been mixing the left over into big buckets and adding a little colored oxides, tin oxide and other glaze ingredients, then testing to see if they are any good. So far I've consolidated about 25 glazes into 4 buckets and have some great colors-- never to be reproduced.

Annual Open Studio

Open Studio is three weeks away! I am working on my newsletter/invitation with all the details and a give away. I hope to send it out this week. So much to do in the next few weeks-- all good!

Just realized this might be easier-- link to the sign-up for my newsletter and invitations.

A Few Foxes

A few frisky foxes--continuing my series of slip painted plates. These are in the painted, unfired state. The foxes,  rabbits, chickens and quail will go in the bisque firing this week and then glazed next week, I hope!
