Would you know the book's title?

heh, your voice is very low. . .
a pointless comment i know, but i thought to say it.
I think you work is very beautiful, very creative.
I am in a pottery class, and I am having trouble throwing on the wheel. Mostly with centering and pulling. My teacher says that I have extremely great ideas, but I am have problems getting it out in my work. . .
But your work is inspiring me and keeping me from giving up.
So Thank You =3

I think that you fire in an electric kiln? Oxidation firing. There are some really great ox. ^6 glazes out there. Putting one glaze over another can produce some nice results, but watch the thickness. Also spraying oxides over your glazes can give color and movement. You can also try blending glazes using a triaxial blend and you may come up with some great new glaze.
Keep testing and experimenting!
What is the name of the glaze you use on these vases? Beautiful and inspiring. Thanks for sharing!!

@free2throw that glaze is called VC20, it is a Val Cushing glaze and can be found in his book containing lots of glazes.

Thank you for your comments. I am glad that you find our work inspiring. There were a lot of people that inspired me when I first started making pots, it is good to know that I can give a little back.

are those pulled handles for the mugs?

Yes, each handle is pulled from a conical piece of clay. I generally make about thirty of these at a time and pull all of the handles just before I trim the bowls so they sit up for a while before they are attached.
