This is it, this is what I have been trying to accomplish for the past couple of years since adding leaves to the pottery. A translucent look so that all the details, the veins and life of the leaves could be seen🍃I couldn’t be happier with the final results of this vessel🍃the choices of glazes has grown and having more options is exciting🍃I have more pieces in the works so that I may ‘play’ more freely with all the new color combinations🎨such a good time in the Studio yesterday, so so grateful🕊

Love it Amy!
What cone are you firing to? I found glazing the most frustrating and rewarding part of making pottery.
'Mastering cone 6 glazes' was my most used and loved book.
This is Porcelain, and I am at the studio of the Morean Center for Clay in St. Petersburg, so there are 12 Cone 6 kilns, I am at their mercy. I have a wheel at home, but all the glazing and firing is at the Studio BUT, one day, a ‘shed’ with an AC and some windows is in my prayers. The glazing of the leaf art on the clay has been a 2 year process to reach this point, the few real successes, outweigh the many many misses! Would love to see your work too, sweet blessings…(will look up the book for future reference🙏🏻) and thank you so much🍃🕊🐸
