my latest kiln opening showing the good AND the bad.........

This is one of my most recent works.

Not the most fun kiln opening I ever had. My idea of making maks for everyone has been SUNK. Hopefully, I can salvage one for Matt, who was so kind to make the drawing for me!

New courses in 'ceramic-craftworks' start on April 28, 2009 at the art-studio from Sigrun Offerhaus (offerhaus@web.de) in Munich Grünwald. This is not a therpeutical course, but entertaining and   more...having fun in working with clay and producing results. See for yourself.  less

The bottom half of the kiln - and some photos of my favourite pieces.

Hubby and I have worked out this method through a bit of trial and error. It is a very space-saving way to do it, and I don't end up with half a ton of clay that needs to be kneeded/wedged at the same   more...time.  less

Finally, I have fired the vases and other stuff. Sadly, that big ball didn't fit into the kiln with the vases. But some cool stuff anyway.
