100. Glaze Unloading. Amazing 2 part pot layering success - Amaco Layering. Lavaflek Mugs Cups Vase

This kiln unloading had some mugs, cups, bowls and vase in Lavaflek.
But the piece I’m most proud of was the stoneware two part pot that I glazed in 3 x Iron Lustre, 2 x Blue Rutile and 1 x Smokey Merlot with thick oatmeal over. Stunning piece.

They are all wonderful....but the last piece = the vase with the Iron Luster/Blue Rutile/Smoky Merlot is SPECTACULAR! Great Job...Thanks!

I love the green inside!

Thankyou

Hi Lois, I love the mannequin in the background! LOL The platter is fabulous. Maybe thicker would solve the cracking problem. And I really like the green inside the bowl. It doesn't compete with the design on the outside. Congrats on that two-part vase! It turned out beautiful! And thank you for sharing your glaze techniques. You've helped me a lot, and I appreciate it!

[@LoisHook]

Thankyou so so much for your kind words. Debbie the mannequin. We saved that from a skip 20 years ago plus. We used to have a workshop where we made vivariums for the reptile industry.

I love the art deco green inside!

Your 2 pt. pot is amazing!!! I'd love to see you glaze that one. I have a vase with holes that I've been trying to figure out glaze for it. I was leaning towards a b/w with Palladium at the top 2/3's but I really love how the rutile turned out for you. I have it and have never used it yet. But I'm still visualizing b/w with white inside peeping through the hole edges. I have a hard time bringing glazes together visually and achieving the results!!!😅😅😅😊

[@LoisHook]

The pot is video 99 so you can watch how I glazed it. Palladium over white is one of my favourite combinations. It has a lovely feather that occurs. Thanks for watching.

Why is there a naked woman sitting in the corner? 😂😂😂 I know - she’s the kiln goddess - lovely work Louise, plaque is gorgeous and will look lovely mended with Kintsugi. 😃

So I tried the gold but it didn’t look great so used black acrylic and then shoe polish to dull it down. Will show at a later video.

Lois--- I don't find the interior green very pleasing and rather a distraction to an otherwise beautiful piece. Is it the same Art Deco Green as the exterior which reads blue? If not, a soft blue---Norse Blue or diluted Cerulean 3:1, creates a soft calm effect. Brick red on the inside---nah, too much.

[@LoisHook]

I’m just doing this on two mugs and I’ve used that in the inside. I agree I hate the green it’s too much. I will have a play with your ideas.
