Building the glaze plan for my next series. Mostly Coyote slow cools with a few bits of Amaco mixed in. Results and details to come.
Growlers in progress, can’t remember how many days. So many projects…
My Canopic jars. I love stealing ideas from the ancient world. Featuring Coyote crystal glazes.
The growlers in progress!
An older sculpture slated for the Flora and Fauna show in October. Hopefully we won’t be canceled by another hurricane.

Ceramic pill box. Because I am getting old and the medications are building up to the point that it is difficult to keep track.
Featuring Coyote Crazed Copper and interior Coyote Blue Purple. Fired on the Coyote slow cool schedule.

Another license plate growler. Featuring Coyote Pansy Blue underglaze and Coyote Archie’s Blue Purple.
#archiebray #coyoteclayandcolor #brayfoundation Fired with a slow cool schedule.
So this is a revisit of a series I did years ago featuring Florida license plates. Seems right now that I am in SC. I like projects that have a sense of place.

Little raccoon guy. A small maquette I made to test a new glaze combo for a larger sculpture. So it’s Coyote Unicorn Horn with Ancient Iron on top. The mask and tail stripes are just Ancient Iron.
I feel like I have the silky fur texture I was after. The firing schedule was the slow cool method recommended for Coyote crystal glazes.

The cardinal couple, I love this time of year, seeing them together is an inspiration. The males are so committed to their families. Featuring Amaco Red Satin Matt and Potters Choice Sepia.

These were made by a Lott boy who takes private lessons from me. Pretty spectacular, he is ten years old! Multiple clays from KY mudworks and Mayco zinc free clear.

Birch tree test plate. I enjoy teaching because I always have to come up with new ways to engage students. In this scenario I put heavy coats of slip on a plate,then let it set up. Then I found a simple concept and traced it on, using tracing paper and a round headed stylus. Final step I carved it out using a Kemper wire stylus ( not the sgraffito) tool.

More fish wall hangings. These are a demonstration of the “Texas Two Step” glaze series from Coyote Clay. I love the oil spotted look. Reminds me of river trout.
