Howlin at the moon
Last night I couldn’t sleep with all the stuff that is
racing around in my one last remaining brain cell. I got up and threw two
pieces for my 32 lb moon jar. I’m getting a fuller moon using the sectional
technique that I have used and known for almost 30 years. Hey, if it ain’t
broke don’t try to fix it. The only chuck I had handy for trimming was a five
gallon round pail half full of glaze so that worked just fine. I put two
handles on and thought hey if two looks good then four will look even better. I
do love the look of pots when they are wet and especially that thick slip when
it oozes out around the handle. The hills and valleys of the moon will be the perfect landing place for falling wood ash. big moon jars and fill a giant anagama and fire
for a week. I guess I’ll have to wait for my next life for that luxury. I need
to make some cups to keep the wolves from howlin’ at the moon. This post looks like an ad for Skutt. I do love my Tommy Stuart's.
