Temperature

Most of my work is fired to ∆10 and ∆06-03, oxidation, in my electric kilns, but I experiment with a wide range of temperatures.

Glaze

For my porcelain work, I tend to spray multiple layers of devitrifying and vitrifying glazes. I feather them over one another in order to create areas of matte and glossy surfaces that blend together with atmospheric effect. For my low-fire terra cotta, I tend to play more with colored slips/engobes and stoney matte, unfused, glazes.
