I fired the kiln last night, the second firing in a sequence of experiments I have been working on using different clay bodies and combination of slips and glazes working over each other.
I have taken on board the comments  about my colour pallet, which boils down to, ‘brown (tenmoku) just don’t do it for a lot of people who want to buy pots’.
Spraying the glazes in multiple layers seems to have achieved one of the outcomes I desire which is a gradation or blending, allowing the surface to become more unpredictable.
The cooling cycle I think is helping develop the colours and gives the greater depth, something to do with the way the chemicals crystallize  on the way down.
I am amazed that all the lids fit!!
The two tall bottles are just a bit of fun, part thrown, part coiled I just wanted to see how tall I could get, they worked out at kiln max height.
All these pots are going into a charity fund raiser, I call it ‘Pot Aid’, Â if you see anything you like give generously to the good cause, you get the pot for free.
