Well summer is officially here and I've been working on some new work and finishing up some work from last semester. The first two pictures are from one of the pieces, that I did as a collaboration with another grad student, in ceramics at Edinboro. I created the sculpture using terra cotta and Deric Ence included the textured work around the end. He originally glazed the work, but I found the glaze to be too dark, so I sandblasted it down and added a cone 6 red glaze to one end and then finished it up with cold glazes and additional sandblasting where I felt it was needed. The second piece pictured is a piece in which I was was exploring the form and reclaimed clay. The glazes applied are cone 6 and cone 06, in an oxidation firing (electric kiln). I fired this piece twice for glaze fire and once for bisque, using a stoneware clay body.
