Tamayaki

22 pieces to be put in the traditional wood fired kiln this coming Saturday, April 10th. I glazed them all today, 6 different colors and different combinations on each piece. The wood fire kiln will take one week to cool down once the wood is stopped being fed to the fire. So I won't get to see my pieces until April 18th!

I have bizen blay, white clay and bizen white clay mixes going into the wood kiln.

Watch for the next post about the workings of the tamayaki or wood fire kiln. Also before and after pictures of the pieces.
