WHAT'S THE HOLD UP

What’s the hold up, well the last two days were crazy days with workman here and then waiting on them to return, what should have taken a couple of hours became two days in a blink of an eye. To that end, pictured are the last holdouts, the last three pieces needed to fill the kiln and get on with the glaze firing. Though the two ring jars look glazed the same, they are not, one will be my saffron glaze with black iron accents, a total of three glazes, the other is Kuro-Oribe, three glazes and two washes in total. The bowl on the banding wheel is soda blue over combed slip with some accents that should show up nicely one fired, fingers crossed. The real slow going for a lot of my glazing is needing to wait a day after putting on the first base glaze, as you can imagine adding a day with a service interruption just adds more time and with me sort of dispossessed from my studio space and material to even carry out my list of glaze tests has dragged this firing off longer than expected. With any luck the weather will now cooperate and the temperatures steering clear of the 90s and I can get this fired and an order out the door.
