Before we get to my pieces from the October 2025 workshop, I never finished sharing my April 2025 raku pottery as I segued into Japanese residency posts and then went on from there! When we last left off, I had shared my experiments with Mason stains and crackle glazes.
I also experimented with dark teal Mason stain and ferric chloride saggar-fired pottery!
First, we have an orb marked with copper mesh:
This is a small dish which has some marks from a copper wire on the exterior:
Next, an oblong vase! The black smoky spots are from testing out a bit of copper tape:
Finally, a small bowl, using a strip of copper mesh this time!
