this is one of my favourites. I am starting to lean towards fewer complications, and I really like the bottle form.

this is one that got the paddle treatment, you can see the marks around the bottom. the glazes overlap and make a wonderful cracked mud effect, which is why I call this particular combination “saltmarsh”. black mud, brown sand, cracked mud .. it reminds me of my favourite place to walk near here.

  2. well, I have to say, I am very pleased .. this is the result of going to Japan, and meeting Shiho kanzaki, and of the woodfiring potter’s event in Devon … lots of stimulation of different sorts.
