Disaster!

One of my large rockbowl exploded during the bisquefire today! I was to fast to put it in the kiln... Should have let it dry for a couple of days more. Luckily the other pots, and the kiln seems to be okay!

Early spring!

My prunus kurilensis has spent the winter in the garage and suddenly it decided that spring is here. It started to bloom last friday so I put it out in the sun. Three days later there were beautiful cherryblossoms all over the tree! It blooms just for a short time, but it is so lovely and I like it a lot...
I think the tree itself starts to look ok, just have to build up some ramification.

Here you have some pictures.

New kiln

Packing the kiln. A lot of glazetests but some pots aswell. Looking forward to opening the kiln on Sunday :-)

Kickwheel

The first pot thrown with my new ( very old ;-)) kickwheel. It will take some time to get the hang of it.

Nice colours!

Almost all of my trees have dropped their leaves by now. But I managed to take some photos with lovely autumn colours, before it was all over.

Korean Maple

Arakawa Maple

My last bonsaipots from the old studio.

I am starting up a new studio with my own kiln and workspace, so here you have the last pots from the old studio. I will start from scratch with different clays and some new glazes.

Here are some rough pots stained with ironoxide.

Slabs or rockbowls.

Here are two rockbowls I made recently. They are about 30 cm wide.
