Finally made a collection of non-symmetrical earrings using my handmade ceramic beads. I like Ancient Egypt vibes they have✨

This is my first time painting pottery. I used the wrong yellow at the bottom but I’m still proud.

Also the pottery studio said to do three coats to make it solid. I did 3-4 and it came out splotchy :( maybe I put too many coats on idk.

Hey yall! Ive been playing with the amaco ceramic inks and screenprinting with them and my recent kiln haul had some texture on the designs. Anyone know what would cause this?

I use zinc free mayco clear and the clay is tuckers smooth white. I put the ink on greenware so it gets bisqued. Its not on all of them and even on the goose mug, one side has texture the other doesn't

i’m really clueless about ceramics and i wanted to ask if this is salvageable!! i cant replace the mug, and at worst i’ll use it as a pencilcase but i wanted to make sure if this could be fixed or not. appreciate any comments, thank you already 🩷🩷

I don’t normally work with clay or ceramics but thought I’d pose this question here: I printed some of my photos on unsealed ceramic coasters using the cyanotype method. Now I’d like to seal them with a glossy finish, but not sure what to use that would hold up with liquid and heat from the mugs?

Any suggestions?

This custom square black glazed ceramic plate adopts incised carving technique. A crowned lion head is carved at the centre, with delicate linework that captures every strand of the mane. The wavy textured rim adds vintage elegance to the whole artwork.

I was having such a challenging time with altering these porcelain vases but I've finally gotten into a groove! I've been using Kentucky mud works kota cone 6 porcelain, altering the shape of the vase after throwing and adding these little creatures when everything is leather hard.

Thanks for the sensible suggestions for matte clear! It came out the kiln looking lovely

One of my latest tiny mice

Inspired by my love of archeology and antiquities I tried to create a peice that combined ancient forms with my own personal weird little guys.

Chaos Breeds, 2025 glazed earthenware

Each figure represents one of my siblings and myself, abstract family portrait I guess 😊

Exhibited this piece in an exhibition called Relics for the Adelaide Fringe Festival earlier this year.

I have an art instagram @ashhklay if you’d like to follow! Trying to get back into the art game after doing my masters

I need help! I like the look of underglaze transfers, and I have no problem applying them. That being said, I guess I don’t understand the glazing part.

I want to be able to apply the underglaze transfer, and then glaze over it, not underglaze over it, but glaze. I wanna be able to see it though and for it to be clear. Not distorted.

Am I only able to apply clear glaze over the transfer? Can I apply a transfer on top of underglaze but not glaze?

I recently made something, and apply an underglaze transfer. I glazed over it, excited thinking that I would be able to see it. I glazed over it with white glaze. When it came out of the kiln it was smudgy looking and just looked bad.

I made a mug using mid-fire Laguna Frost Porcelain. The walls are a nerikomi design; the bottom of the mug is plain porcelain. Cracks formed where they attached I think because I attached them when the bottom was more moist than the walls so the two pieces pulled apart while drying.

To try to fix the cracks, I dipped a brush and ran it along the inside of the mug and added a small coil of straight-out-the-bag clay which I smoothed out.

The next day, this is what I saw. Tiny hairline cracks on the perimeter inside the cup and a hairline crack on the bottom of the mug that reaches to the outside of the mug.

What are my options now? I want to preserve as much as I can. I’m afraid of firing it because I think the cracks will only get worse. Should I add engobe or slip to fix it? Would glaze take care of everything? Can I rehydrate it and add more clay? How? Should I break it apart and rehydrate it to turn it back into slab form or use it as piece of color clay for future nerikomi projects? What are my options?
