The last firing went well, although in my excitement I managed to break a hot pot I pulled out of the kiln too quickly and managed to drop. As it sintered in the snow it developed some interesting textures and colors. Hmmm . . . It may be something worth exploring further! 
Wow, that’s a huge picture. I will have to work on my computer skills over the Holiday break! I look forward to getting back into the studio, but until then will enjoy having friends and family here over the next couple of weeks. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all! Cheers!!
