In the last fifteen years I have been working on the open fire technique. I bisque fire to 980°-1100° once or twice and then, when the temperature of the kiln drops to 500°-600° I carry the work outside in the open air where I have already prepared a kiln and do a final firing using small bits of wood and sawdust. Finally while still warm I fill the pores and surface with beeswax giving them a final smooth texture. Although the open fire (raku) is an exciting process, I also love to make pottery in low (earthenware) and high (stoneware) temperatures. |
