Well, I have been re-arranging shelves and making new ones.... there was a grey of sunshine the other day, and as the real warm stuff shone on some of the pots from last fall ,it was like seeing them for the first time. It has been grey valley fog for weeks.
And I discovered that I could salvage a lot of the Anagamas ' slightly underfired work by refiring, sometimes with a glaze added.
This has been good by and large- a couple pieces I wish I had left as they were...but many tea-bowls have been saved for future dispersion....
It is time to get back to wet work and making-just have to clear out a space on the table...I need a "store-room", which for the moment will be apple boxes in the loft. Whether I am ready for the spring firing is always a bit iffy... but I still have hope.
Right now I am learning to use a" knitting knobby" so I can show my daughter...
