Back in Grey Clay

I got back into my stoneware yesterday. It felt like coming home. Comfortable. I felt at ease working on familiar shapes, starting with some yunomi and then a couple boards of bowls and then some mugs. A new shape mug for me, sort of hourglass shaped. I had a customer ask me for this shape so these will be for her. I'll get the feet cut on these pots and handles on the mugs today.

I already have a kiln load probably with all the dishes I made a while back. Today I'm going to make some salt pigs and maybe a few more bowls. I also made some cut slab trays yesterday, I'll get some feet on them today and post an image later.
Have a great Friday!
