Testing TWO 'Fake' Porcelain Clay Bodies

Here are two more clay bodies that I’ll be testing in my next firing, both are stoneware, yet they simulate porcelaneous clays, one is very smooth and the other is heavily, painfully grogged. Both offering their own unique challenges to work with as compared to my usual 10% grogged stoneware, if you’d like to watch my struggle with these in a longer format film, my recent upload on YouTube, (there’s a link in my profile’s biography), discusses working with these types of clay in far greater detail. It’s incredible how much you need to adjust your technique for small differences in clay. How they’re thrown and lifted off the wheel and how they’re trimmed, the clay feeling so dense that it’s tricky for the blades edge to catch purchase, I can blame these differences on the undulations the smaller indented bowl has. White clay for white glaze, that’s the idea, with a black clay also being tested with a similar, matte black glaze, the plan being to find some simple combinations I like to create some simple, black and white wares from, groups and pairs, light and dark. #maker #ceramicist #bowl #oddlysatisfying #asmr #pottery #ceramics
