Hi Auggie,

I venture to guess you are very tired and have been doing some catch-up resting.

I hope you were able to get some digital pictures of your work for us to see.

I can visualize the beautiful reds, but I am having trouble with some of the other colors: celadons, Temmaku glaze, and woo blues (sounds incredible)!

<< Finally, one of my favorite things to do (which I only did on a limited number of pieces this firing) is to double or triple dip a piece in red/woo blue/celadon, or combinations of them. And I had the kiln gods looking down upon me with a nod of approval there too. .Especially the red/woo blue. So brilliant the hues. I have blue dripping/blending into purples into stark red. The effects sort of remind me of paintings during the, oh shoot, mind block....What is the era during Monet's time? Impressionistic? anyhow, it is great. These are the things that separate a nice piece of pottery from those that demand extensive attention. Drippy, dreamy, screaming "Look at me, look at me. Ain't I beautiful!" >>

I can't wait to see these! They sound lovely!

Norma

P.S. "August done something good" indeed!
