I have just stumbled on your page and am so glad I did! I started watching your closed form jars video because I love making closed jars! I've been throwing about a year and I am constantly trying new things to find what I like. I related to this recent video and I do think you have elements of a style! In the videos I've watched you have a style of bottom and seem to like round curves. I gravitate to those shapes as well and have found your videos very helpful. Also you throw items I'm interested in trying or improving on. You, and so many talented ceramicists I have found online, make me wish I had the opportunity to try ceramics when I was younger! Thank you for sharing and good job!

Hi, I was wondering about the firing temperatures; I understand you glaze them at 1020 degrees C, yet when I look up the glazes online I see that i.e. the Indigo Float by Amaco says 'glaze temp: 1200-1300 *C'. Can I just use them for glazing at 1020 or 1060 without issues? Thank you very much!

So well explained, I've been trying out glazes and think I must have been applying too heavily and not waiting long enough in-between to let them dry. What cone do you fire at? :)
