Hey Easter. Great to hear from you. Im so glad you liked this video. I am always doing research and trying to think of ideas to present to you guys. Sometimes I can get on a roll with content and sometimes I struggle. Its not always easy, but I love a good challenge . Thanks as always for your support.

@@annruel1982 it’s my pleasure my dear 💖

Hi Huss. You got it. thanks for reaching out and also thanks for watxhing the video. Jim and I really appreciate that.

Hey Natalie. Im so glad you liked it. I hadnt thought of the ASMR aspect. I like that. Thanks so much for watching.

Hi Susan! Aww...thanks so much.. I am always doing research and keeping an eye out for new ways to work with the clay. A lot of times it is just experimenting and figuring out what works. Im so glad you stopped by to watch. 🙂

Hey Stepanie. Thanks for reaxhing out and letting me know. You got it. I will work on that for you. Thanks so much for watching! 🙂

Hey Michele. I am glad you are back. Jim and I missed hearing from you. Im so glad you liked the video. Using lace on the female formed mugs is brilliant! Why didnt I think of that. I bet you could come up with plenty of other types of ways to clothe those figures. Thanks for the inspiration. 🙂

Haha, My thoughts exactly. Time is always going faster when I am working in the studio. I am so glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks so much for watching!!

Hi Laura. Thanks so much for reaching out. I actually have thought of something like that. I saw somewhere where someone was making travel mugs with a locking lid so the liquid wouldnt spill out and I thought about making them, but lids are not my favorite things to make. I work with a very fine porcelain that likes to "move" in the high fire. This means that I might construct something with several parts that fit together great in the greenware stage and even the bisque stage. But the high firing will change the shape just a little to where the pieces dont fit as well. it doesnt happen every time, but it has happened enough to where I got tired of spending a lot of time trying to make things that fit together only to be disappointed in the end when I have to throw it away. Maybe I need to switch to low fire clay, haha. I will keep thinking about this though. If I can think of a way to do it with greater success at my mid range temps, I will make a video for sure.

Hi Lamardon. haha. Now, that is so true. On the other hand, it would be fun to experiment with some of these materials and let them slide down the pot. Let nature and gravity take over and see what kind of textures you would get from that. you would be recording the reactions from the law of gravity. that might be really interesting. .... and then there are times where I just really need to turn off my brain and reset, haha. Thanks so much for watching!

Hey Cariad! Great to hear from you. You got it. I will work on that for you. thanks as always for watching and for your support. 🙂

Hey Deborah! Haha, That would be so funny. I bet there are a lot of other ways to clothe those female forms for sure. Im so glad you liked the video. Thanks as always for watching and for your support. 🙂

˙Hi Mavis. Awesome! Go and experiment.. I know there are plenty of other types of materials that you could use with this technique.

Hi Bumblebee. Good to hear from you. Thanks for watching and letting me know about the vase. I will get on that for you. Take care. 🙂

Hi Christina! That is great!! Im so glad to hear that you liked the video and are inspired to give it a go. Thanks for watching and supporting our channel.

Hi Freedom! Great to hear from you. . Thanks so much for watching and all your support. You know that Jim and I really appreciate you.

I was wondering the same thing

I've bisque fired botanicals pressed into pieces. Great texture, but need to brush the ashes out of the crevices. But that was without covering with slip. I might have to try it and see what happens.

You are so welcome!

Hi Andthen. Awesome. Give it a try. It is a lot of fun revealing the texture after the slip has dried.

Hi Vilia. You are very welcome. That makes my day. Thanks so much for watching.

Hi Trine. Thanks so much! I like to do the underglaze washing when the piece is totally bone dry and in the greenware stage. I seem to get a cleaner surface at that stage as I can go back and even scrape away areas where the wash has lodged itself. One tip is that in the greenware stage, I also went in with a tiny paint brush filled with black underglaze and brushed in lines etc....any areas where the imagery didnt quite register as well ...to complete the lines. Does that make sense? I am a bit of a perfectionist that way. Oh thanks for letting me know about the leaf vase. Jim and I will get on that. 🙂

@@annruel1982 I think I understand. I will definitely try it. Thank you for your reply. Have a nice weekend 😊.

@@trinelabori1130 Oh good. Go for it. I bet you will be more creative with this than I was 🙂

Hi Jackie. Okay. Thanks for the feedback. I will definitely do that for you. Thanks for watching.

Hey Fruitless. Brilliant. I can see how that would work in my mind. Very cool.

Hi Anna. My pleasure for sure. Im glad you liked it. Thanks for letting me know that you would like me to do the leaf vase. I will do that for sure 🙂

Dont know, that is an interesting hypothesis though. I can see why they would be less concerned about the burn off of organic materials vs. today...gotta think more about that one! Interesting.
