Aurora Extremes











Aurora has been resting in a large plastic container and came out today with new and subtly different colours - again. The picture shows the two colour extremes on two almost identical soap pumps.These two pots look the same and were glazed and fired at the same time. I can't explain why the red can show up on one pot and not the other. Today's kiln opening brightened up a very wet dreary day for me. I'll post more pictures of this latest kiln offering and Aurora incarnation on another Blog post since I don't know how to update my Gallery Page yet..

Campfire Pottery for Children of all ages

This is a reprint of an earlier Blog for those who are new or may have missed it.

Most children already know how to play with mud and it's the adults who need to remember the joys of water, mud and fire and realize it is all free for the digging and burning and with your time. Clay is an entirely different social medium and can be found everywhere or at your local potter. Campfire Pottery - for Children of all ages Earth , air , fire , water , and imagination are the ingredients. Simply shape a clay mix - let it dry, and paint it as is or “fire” it first to red heat in an outdoor fire or fireplace to transform raw clay back into rock. Adult supervision recommended for firing. Earth : Clay is finely ground earth. A mixture of clay and filler such as sand and or sawdust/straw etc. will dry and fire more easily than pure clay...
