Another low fire soda fired yunomi. This one is a great example of why I sometimes need to give my work time to grow on me. All of these textured cups with terra sig came out leaving me underwhelmed. I was taking a technique I found mostly successful at cone ten and struggling to see it as being effective at cone 3. I have started to really enjoy some of the subtleties in the flashing the sig provides as I’ve let it sit in my studio and I have taken the time to study it more. Still not there but definitely not something I’m leaving behind. . . Cone 3 soda fired terra -cotta with underglaze and white terra sig. . . #ceramics #pottery #clay #sodafired #lowfire #lowfiresoda #redclaylove #contemporarycraft #ceramicart #cone3soda #soda #keramik #mug #art #teabowl #teabowltuesday #contemporaryceramics #porcelain #handmade #madeatlillstreet #studiopottery #קֵרָמִיקָה #céramique #poterie #cerámica #keramikk #krukmakeri #handmade (at Old Irving Park, Chicago) https://www.instagram.com/p/CE6dFagDArP/?igshid=1lb8ssrv3yf7a

I made these five soda fired pinched cups right at the beginning of the pandemic. I was forced to change the way I made work because I had not yet set up my home studio. I really like this newer body of hand built work that I’ve been making in the last few months and I’m excited to have them heading out to shows and to peoples homes. These are going to @charliecummingsgallery for “cup: the intimate object XVI” which goes live on their website October 3rd. . . . . . . #ceramics #pottery #clay #sodafired #handbuilding #handbuiltpottery #handbuiltceramics #handbuilt #contemporarycraft #ceramicart #cone10soda #soda #keramik #mug #art #mugshot #contemporaryceramics #porcelain #handmade #madeatlillstreet #studiopottery #קֵרָמִיקָה #céramique #poterie #cerámica #keramikk #krukmakeri #handmade (at Charlie Cummings Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CD1LHc7DEPX/?igshid=5i3x51z9jswt

I side fired this mug in the soda kiln at @lillstreetceramics on one big piece of wadding. I used the Mishima technique to inlay underglaze which thinned out the porcelain enough that you can just see light pass through the wad mark . . . . #ceramics #pottery #clay #sodafired #contemporarycraft #ceramicart #cone10soda #soda #keramik #mug #art #mugshot #teabowl #teabowltuesday #contemporaryceramics #porcelain #handmade #madeatlillstreet #studiopottery #קֵרָמִיקָה #céramique #poterie #cerámica #keramikk #krukmakeri #handmade #howiamaco (at Old Irving Park, Chicago) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCqTa2KD2e7/?igshid=uuvueeuc5l3k

I’ll be teaching a free online workshop with @kcclayguild on July 23rd! . . #Repost @kcclayguild with @get_repost ・・・ We are so excited to announce our next Instagram Live workshop with Levi Yastrow (@take_it_or_levi ) on Thursday, July 23rd! We missed our June workshop while accepting workshop proposals, so we are featuring two workshops for July! Levi Yastrow is a Chicago based artist and educator who earned a BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2012. He primarily focuses on making soda and wood fired utilitarian ceramics. He is currently a Teaching Artist at Lillstreet Art Center in Chicago and the Ceramics Lab technician at the College of DuPage. During his work shop Levi will demonstrate 2 decoration techniques that he uses for his soda fired works. He will show how he layers flashing slip and underglaze to develop different surfaces and wax resist to help to create and define those layers. Levi will also show how he uses both home-made and purchased underglaze transfers to create depth, color and pattern on the surfaces of his work. We can’t wait for Levi to share his work!
