It’s back, and it looks good, really good. Since my few shots at the studio don’t sing, here’s one I took as I loaded the boxes into my car; as the sunlight was perfect. There will be more shot at home, later:

Those are a pair of whiskey cups in stoneware with iron, with extra silica. They’re on top of some with the #119 clay, and inside of a porcelain vase. The glaze on all is a copper blue.
My notes: Stuff looks fantastic - I can’t wait to do it again! The house from on the bag wall looks excellent, and I like the look of that #119 clay was suggested to me… nice and warm color. I think I prefer less iron in my clay for wood/salt; the iron seemed to come out more strongly compared to soda. The added silica was a nice look too. I used a lot of the Tile 6 slip (I think it’s got a bunch of neph sy in it too) on the little cups and that looked good. It was a surprise (but perhaps shouldn’t have been) that the round vase fired on its side came out… less round. Should try that again too.

I hear it, odd but your work looks very musical, this is a symphony with an oboe, don’t ask why, don’t know, just hearing it visually.
