I’ve always loved Japanese pottery. Your works inspires me greatly.

[@WatajimaPottery]

Thank you so much! I also think that there are unique and traditional ceramics in various parts of Japan, which is very fascinating.

This pot is so beautiful. It is clear that you know exactly how your clay and glazes interact for the best results. I would also like to try this technique, I think. I normally use a white stoneware and carve textures for breaking glazes, but I was recently given several kilograms of a darker, groggy clay with a fair amount of iron in it. I think using contrasting slips like this might give me some lovely results. Thank you for sharing!

[@WatajimaPottery]

Thank you so much! I hope it helps and gives you good results!

Beautiful!

[@chickadddee]

I love how these techniques you use are simple in some ways, complex and layered in other ways, rustic in feel but sophisticated overall - all at the same time! Very balanced, but intriguing. :)

[@WatajimaPottery]

Thank you so much!

[@TariHuffaker]

It is beautiful! ❤

[@WatajimaPottery]

Thank you so much !

[@annpes3143]

The outcome is amazing.. i love your job i didn't know you can apply slip on bisque and directly glaze it.. i'll try a tiny piece and see if that tecnique is suitable for the tipe of clay and glaze i use..thanks for being such an ispiration

[@WatajimaPottery]

Thank you so much! I hope it will work for your clay and glaze.

BELLO!!!!❤

[@judywang8393]

Love this new design. Was the last glaze you applied clear glaze?

[@WatajimaPottery]

Thank you. Yes, I applied clear glaze.

[@verobraet]

you apply underglaze on leatherhard and slib on biscuit fired pot, did I understand that right? I'm a MEGA beginner, so I would think that slib on a baked pot would cause cracks? am I wrong? (apparently, because your pot came out absolutely gorgeous! 🙂) supernice work!!! tx for the video!

[@WatajimaPottery]

Thank you. Yes, I applied underglaze on a leather-hard pot and slip on a bisque-fired pot. I recommend applying glaze before the slip dries completely to prevent cracks.

[@RichardLyleEsq]

This is very restful. Thank you.

[@WatajimaPottery]

Thank you !

[@LaLaArtStudio]

OOO I love how the blue turned out 😍 such a beautiful contrast ❤ What type is the clay? Is it an earthenware like Terracotta? Always so much joy watching 🙏

[@WatajimaPottery]

Thank you so much! It’s not terracotta, but I mix 2type of clays. I was showing how I make the clay in the video. Please take a look. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eZOpdKVjhtGjibM

​@@WatajimaPottery ohhhhh, thank you for directing me to your other video, I somehow missed it 🤷🏼‍♀️ I'll be sure to watch it 🙏

[@Andrea-bu3vn]

Dear Watajima San, sorry that i didn`t comment your last videos. I had so much family stuff to do but i am always enjoying your viedeos! Thank you again for the great picutures. I really didn`t think there would be so much snow at your mountains. Must be very cold in your workshop! So hopefully it`s better by now! 🙂 See you soon....

[@WatajimaPottery]

Thank you so much for watching my video, even though you were busy! I'm glad you enjoyed it. And thank you for being concerned about the cold in my studio, I really appreciate it.

とても素敵です、さて　もしよかったらだけ教えていただきたいのですが、最初の濃青は土化粧、素焼き後は釉薬ですか？

[@WatajimaPottery]

ご視聴ありがとうございます。 最初の濃青は青色の下絵具になります。着色してから素焼きします。

[@marciasilviajohnson6461]

What recipe you use for the white slip? I never see slip staying on bisque clay usually it comes off on glazing firing, even before that. Do you mind to share the slip recipe for us? Thanks I love your demos and your pottery.

[@WatajimaPottery]

Thank you! Please wait for the upcoming video that I’m preparing on white slip. I’ve also made videos showing how I apply slips. Please take a look at them; I hope they will be helpful. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fIKUk4Wsiryaa5osi=EkPGZVw0g6wFiX77 kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJDbfmV4odB4as0si=lZ85Osq0sLSn9lqU

[@marciasilviajohnson6461]

Yes, I did watch the videos how to apply the slip. Thank you i will be looking forward to see the recipe and the preparation of the slips. Thank you so much 🤗

この器は、赤粘土を使っていますが、白粘土ではどうなりますか？

[@WatajimaPottery]

ご視聴ありがとうございます。白土では、コバルトの絵の具が鮮やかになると思います。

These are lovely. I am curious about the fabric or paper that is covering your stamp, Is it waxed to oiled to keep the clay from sticking?
