Judith Hosts A Barrel Firing

The Summer of 2011, the Palouse Studio Potters were invited to Casa Marvin with Judith and Gary to do a barrel firing followed by one of our famous pot luck lunches.

This is what it looks like beginning to load the barrel. Straw, dung, kindling, banana peels, paper, Miracle Gro.

Oh yes, add some ceramics too. These are Judith's tile and set of buttons. Then more layers of fuel.

Jeanne's amphora and Judith's jar, more fuel will be piled on.

The barrel loaded moments before we lit it afire and removed to the excellent lunch.

After just a few hours it has burned down. A few pots are peeking out from the coals.

Judith's tile is still very hot, but you can see some color from the firing.

And some finished pots. Including a broken amphora, this kind of firing is rough and tumble and the pots don't all work out. Although the ones in the foreground did.
