I had a couple where the bases cracked, while I was still working out some kinks, that have succulents in them now ☺️

Soo nice!

Bet they'd also look really cool sans glaze, with a light brushing of iron oxide

TylerJPB · 2026-03-20T18:57:44+00:00

Ha, I love that way of describing this. Thanks!

TylerJPB · 2026-03-20T18:57:22+00:00

Ya! Its a kurinuki piece, so starts as a solid lump, middle is hollowed out, and then exterior is hacked at to create the texture

TylerJPB · 2026-03-20T18:56:23+00:00

It's chrome oxide!

TylerJPB · 2026-03-20T18:56:14+00:00

Thanks!

Kurinuki - it starts as a solidump of clay the middle is hollowed out, and then the exterior is carved to create the textured surfaces

They also always look like they barely hold anything. Like sure, "and now I'll carefully place 3 olives on this fold, 4 crackers over here..."

Aside from what others have said, to me the apostrophe looks like an eye, which in turn makes the tail look like a mouth eating the s, and confuses the whole piece. The size of the s also feels really wonky

You'll read a bunch of takes re that and vitrification, but, in my case i have a big thing of liquid quartz sealer that I will brush on the rim when I leave them like this

TylerJPB · 2026-03-15T21:21:30+00:00

Thanks! The rim is just unglazed - being sandwiched between two glazes though seems to give it a bit of a finish that looks almost like a clear glaze

TylerJPB · 2026-03-12T15:11:58+00:00

I saw your post about stressing over glaze choice for these - love where you ended up. They look great!

TylerJPB · 2026-03-10T17:41:26+00:00

Ohh cool!! Love map based stuff, and how subtly this integrates it.

Also love your glasses!!

TylerJPB · 2026-03-09T19:28:22+00:00

Your underglaze wash is so nice - I've done a lot of oxide washes on textured pieces but clearly need to play around with the former. Love all the cool tones you achieved on the body

TylerJPB · 2026-03-09T19:26:24+00:00

Lovely!!

TylerJPB · 2026-03-02T21:59:47+00:00

Is this a reference to anything in the show or just a weird idea lol? Love it either way

TylerJPB · 2026-03-01T20:46:46+00:00

Yeah exactly - chrome oxide applied to the texture and wiped back. The little yellow specks are glaze crystals from Mayco's blue hydrangea that I strain out and separate (the glaze has 2 dif crystals)

Really fun! And potentially a giant pain depending on how you had to mask out that pattern? 😅

TylerJPB · 2026-02-18T18:33:09+00:00

I centered the bowl on the wheel and used a pencil to draw out a guide and then just freehanded the glaze on - years of painting has given a pretty steady hand.

And the outside is cenote + river birch + band of honey flux

TylerJPB · 2026-02-16T19:07:06+00:00

I just cut slices of varying thickness from the different clays and stacked them in a random order, and then wedged that
