Glazed, wadded, and ready to go! I don't think they'll all be in this round but hopeful as much can be fired as possible. There is one more vase being bisqued that will also be included.
As much as I am psyched for… https://t.co/9SUKpNe7qV

Getting ready once again for #emptybowls for Berea College! And thanks to this small pugmill I can clean up studio scrap clays and have them made for a great cause. Can't wait to get them… https://t.co/4jvvKLNMgo

Soda kilns are amazing! Perfect for people that take absurd amounts of time thinking about glazing!!

There's a lot to learn about pottery outside of books and pinterest. I used to avoid making tall bowls because I thought the form was wrong but after dining at a bunch of Asian restaurants it turns out it's pretty… https://t.co/oRLrGa0oBu

After so many attempts at the donut vessel form I finally managed to get one that doesn't succumb to stress cracking. Clay body was the major reason!! https://t.co/zbEI4Tr3NJ

Carve through the heat! That's one down and a LOT more to go.

Bravo to everyone for a week of Rattling Experience! There were so many rattles that filling the kiln was a no Brainerd and I could even slip in some personal work.

Rattles will be fired and finished by this… https://t.co/H9P4My4fAU

Rebound! And this time it's bigger and more unique because I had more time to play with it.

Failure is a stepping stone for progress. There were things about the last batch of pots I didn't like and because I… https://t.co/0oI4cechGT

Now that I have these assembled I can focus on getting a brand new design made before the June shows. @ Berea, Kentucky https://t.co/ufB3S2CL0q

Updating the portfolio and using time to think about the future. https://t.co/YYB73UycJL

First time using chicken for siopao. But I can't make not-pork siopao either. So a lot of siopao.

Not at all a problem. @ Berea, Kentucky https://t.co/XX5tuQJkKt

Got my chance to fit my work in the wood-soda kiln alongside some really cool potters! I also got so pumped to have my mugs flash in the kiln I forgot my clay body is already… https://t.co/UDavw5NzPX

[Jonathan Dazo (dazoclay) @dazoclaystudio]

I can't believe people think my mugs aren't traditional KY art! My signature fish bone skeleton designs are CLEARLY based on the spotted smallmouth bass!

It's so OBVIOUS! It… https://t.co/70EGqHARxe
