I would have liked to open the kiln last night to see if my pots had survived the firing, but Gerrry is insistant that it can only be opened when the temperature is below 150C. So I had to wait until today.
I am really pleased with my first ever hand thrown on the wheel - all by myself - pots.
They were decorated with black and yellow brush on glazes and different oxides. I applied some wax over the glazes and oxides and dipped the whole pot in an oatmeal glaze. The glaze ran off where the wax had been painted, revealing the yellows and blacks.
Now I have to wait and see if I can sell them.
