CLAY SLIP DESCRIPTION
The clay slips that depict the landscape are usually hand-dug in road cuts or stream beds. The clay is sieved with a fine screen to remove rocks and organic material. Then it is tested and prepared for use as a slip to be painted on the clay body. If the slip is a desirable color, compatible with the clay body, and withstands durability testing, then it becomes a landscape pottery clay slip.

Here's a 24 minute video about throwing pottery. It is a link to Youtube.com: SHAWNEE MOUNTAIN POTTERY

Our most popular Still Water Blue on Black Clay, Red Rocks with Black, Sunshine Yellow, Granite Pattern Brown, Springtime Green are all available in 5 inch, 8 inch, 10 inch and 12 inch.
Each piece of pottery begins with a ball of clay that is individually hand-thrown on the wheel or is hand-built. The clay is handled many times by the artist before emerging from the kiln as a finished piece: wedging, throwing, trimming, finishing, drying, bisque firing, waxing, slip-trailing, dipping, sponging, and glaze firing. Handmade pottery is a very labor-intensive art form. All pieces are oxidation fired in an electric kiln to 2291 degrees F. known as cone 6. The pottery is durable stoneware clay and glazed to become weatherproof, lead-free, and safe for the dishwasher, microwave, or conventional oven. The artist signs each piece of pottery.
