low fired: July 2012
http://lowfired.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, 26 July 2012. End of Year Show. End of year show looked fantastic - we scrubbed the rooms up well and with a fresh lick of paint and some new boards they looked like proper exhibition spaces. I think our year was a talented bunch and it was really good to see the culmination of everyones two years. Annoyingly I did not take a camera but grabbed a couple of pics of Jasons facebook page at http:/ www.facebook.com/media/set/? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. O Luxo do Lixo.

low fired: July 2011
http://lowfired.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, 30 July 2011. Just back from a bit of a break - some photos of amazing tiles to add here soon - and I actually have a commission. Unfortunately I plug my old kiln in for fist time since it was moved in January and it is broken. The commission is for a small sculpture for a wedding present. I am going to send an email to the customer with a couple of alternative pieces that I have in stock and hope either they are of interest or they dont mind waiting a bit. Friday, 8 July 2011. Today, strong in...

low fired: final glaze tests
http://lowfired.blogspot.com/2012/04/final-glaze-tests.html
Friday, 20 April 2012. Last batch if glaze tests came out of the kiln today. Lots of work to do on the colours and what forms they fit (I tried the tan and the green on some deep bowls - the tan looked awful but the green great). I used slip casts from a squash bottle lid found on the beach for the tests, each colour was single and double dipped;. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

low fired: January 2012
http://lowfired.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 17 January 2012. College time has run out for the bulb project for now but there are some ideas I will play around with in the future - especially a way of turning the bone china bulbs into small lamps. Neon tubing - could led trips and ceramic tubes create a similar effect? And playing around with lighting and looking at the amount of lit signage in Brighton has got me thinking about making bone china ceramic neon text. is it possible? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

low fired: pulling it together
http://lowfired.blogspot.com/2012/05/pulling-it-together.html
Wednesday, 16 May 2012. Last few weeks of project, trying to tie up loose ends. Firstly the bin/print piece. Still not sure about this one but might suggest having it in the corner of the gallery and see how many people add their litter to it. The concept is strong but the execution not so good - think its the rough quality of my bin that is really letting it down. A belgian margarine tub from the beach by Black Rock. A polystyrene coffee cup from The Level. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

low fired: display ideas
http://lowfired.blogspot.com/2012/05/display-ideas.html
Thursday, 3 May 2012. After waiting two weeks for enough sun (this is West Dorset.), it finally came out for two hours on Wednesday and I quickly made cyanotype print maps of Brighton covering the routes I walked when looking for litter. Prints scrunched and ready to throw in the bin. Put the three together. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Tyler School of Art Fibers and Material Studies. O Luxo do Lixo.

low fired: last casts
http://lowfired.blogspot.com/2012/04/last-casts.html
Sunday, 22 April 2012. Last batch of litter casts in porcelain, glazed in stoneware clear with an iron oxide rim. Waiting to go in kiln the matt chalky surface of the unfired glaze looks good - must try out a bright white matt glaze at some point;. Fresh from kiln, happily sucessful. All the tests seem to have paid off and I have just the right amount of run from the rim. Rushing back to Brighton so only a quick snap, will photo property soon. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
