Up close plate

This is one of my underglaze tests that shows the iron black stains working well with the clear glaze. So tough to get the basic clear to be fault free. Here I am almost there. The adjustment will be small. Next firing is always going to be better. Can't wait.

Close ups

One of my new t-pots. Love this red glaze.

Last glaze fire.

Packing up for the season. Ayhus Arts production for 2010. Time to get ready for the fall sale.

Kiln Opening is like Christmas

Opening a glaze firing is like "the best" so exciting, fulfilling, rewarding, and inspirational. It's so special when it works it is truly riding a dragon. Can't waitvto load the next glaze.

One acrylic painter has a critic that loves the work.

Last night beach fire

KLASS students have beach fire with smores to end the last night at Ayhus Arts on Savary. A magical time.

Sock birds attack Savary

Ayhus arts hosts Katarina Thorsens sock birds come by the studio and check them out or find more to monkey with at http://poststreet.wordpress.com

Day two of the KLASS workshop

Watercolours at the beach was the orderof the day as the rain holds off long enough to get some beach time in. A great beginning to the day. Check in later for the Raku glaze firing.

KLASS makes it to Ayhus Arts

All 18 arrived at Savary amidst a rain storm keen to sock monkey, draw and raku. We had a great morning forming our clay projects and drawing. More to come.
