Thanks Andy!

Wow- creative. Are you experimenting with lettering on under the glaze?

Yes Rob, signs of culture on a rough, earthy pot. You read "oesterreichisch", which is the native term for
austrian.

Horst-
Do you know of the american potter Jeff Oestreich? He once explained to me the "east reich" origins of his name. You should see his work. You and he have a similar color palate.

@ PT: In about 900 a.c. it was the term for the border region region of the East-Frankish-Empire,
this part was called "Ostarrichi".
No, I don't know, Jeff, I have to google - or is there a link to his web-site?
Thanks Horst

Horst,
I like the ash drips on the top of the taller oval. It also has a lot of interesting layers of color.

Quite spectactular

very lovely Horst

Rob

to continue:

Horst,
I like your feet and cut out on that last one. Very nice.

Your orange/rust glaze that you use is interesting too. May I ask, is the orange color from oxides, stains, or both? I am guessing both, but I don't do high fire reduction yet, so I am not sure.
-Rob

Rob, the colorant is copper, no stains are used - but for this one, yes:

What a beauty! That's what I call 'pushing the envelope'

I really like the seam too. It opens up a lot of possiblities in your designs...

Rob

Dear Horst

Your famous orange glaze !!!

How good to see it again , and the glaze on the last
pictures ,the pinkish bubbles is so organic , like it very much !!

Dear Rob

On the old IBC , Horst showed his orange glaze too.
We potters were all excited and asked Horst empty minded about it .
During the asking we did it like a quiz , it was so nice and sheerfull !!
We taking our books , recipies, try-outs out , thinking of all
kind of combinations , minarals on different firing temps
and all possibilities according to firing.
