Nice peeling, eh?
This Flashing wash actually works well, (well... it works well sometimes), I just have to figure out how it works and why.
For me, this is why studio ceramics is so much fun, play, test, adjust. Each load is a gamble.
Learning from the losers is what makes things interesting.
This was applied too thick and fired too wet without being allowed to completely dry. With the high amount of clay in the mix, it just shivered off. Gotta let it dry completely... can't let the surface boil... I think.

Yeah ... "I think" is often the most definitive judgment possible ...
This is also why I enjoy it so much! You really never know what you are going to get...even if you "think" you know, you're never 100% sure. That element of surprise!
So cool though... Keep going. I have to see more.
hi joel,
that is one crazy but cool glaze surface. i agree that it just drips with potential. regardless the blue/white/orange combo is playing well
Looks like it's trying to shed its skin. Neat.
