And another pot was fired, I expected it to be olive green, but apparently I had the wrong glaze. As the blue and white is black when you paint it, glaze is mostly greyish, white with a hint of blue or green or just murky. I still like it!

Tulipvase progress
Finished decorating the tulipvase, all that's left to do is glazing and firing. I'll glaze it next week and then it's waiting for the kiln to be filled. As Yolande, the pottery teacher, is producing a lot for Christmas, I probably won't have wait too long.

The glaze has bubbled on the inside of this pot, which is about 1 inch diameter. Just trying to decide whether it is a plant pot or a pot for the kitchen....

Il tuo vaso-tulipano è proprio bello. Complimenti,Idske!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Blanche, it's getting there finally!
DeleteOh, Idske, the vase looks great, I can't wait to see it finished.
ReplyDeleteThanks Elga, it will be a few weeks, but some of the other small pots may have been fired by next Tuesday!
DeleteFingers crossed it won't be long till it will be fired. Can't wait to see it done. I have respect you can wait the time it needs, without having that much control of what's happening inside the kiln. Or even knowing how it comes out of it ;) But that is a big part of the fun i guess! I love the pot being brown :)
ReplyDeleteThe decoration looks lovely! I'm keeping my fingers crossed the firing will go well and nothing gets burned.
ReplyDeleteThe brown pot turned out great!
Hugs,
Gee
Can't wait to see the finished product.

Beste Idske,
ReplyDeleteIk werd nieuwsgierig nadat ik jouw reactie op mijn blog gelezen had. Dus ik denk ik bezoek jouw blog ook eens. Wat een mooie vaas.
Groetjes Dorien
Welkom Dorien en dank je wel. De vaas staat in de glazuur en gaat in de eerst volgende oven run, hopelijk is hij volgende week klaar!
ReplyDeleteOh wow, Idske, it's fantastic! what a lot of skill went into that... I'm very impressed!
ReplyDeleteHello Idske,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind words, and thank you for giving me your blog's name.
I love your work. You are very good with your pottery. The tulip vase need a log of skill. I love the little pot too.
Hugs, Drora
Hallo Idske, deze post is aan mij voorbij gegaan, toch gauw nog reageren. Ik zal duimen (totdat ze er van afvliegen:D) en hopen dat alles goed gaat met de ovenprocedure!! Fingers crossed!
ReplyDeleteGroetjes, Ilona
