Pit-Fire

This is the pit-fire process. Ceramic work is created, and fired to bisque temperatures. Colorants and other additives are put on the ware for decoration, and it is placed into a pit dug in the ground. Pots and sticks are layered together, and the pile is set afire. Once the pit is filled with red-hot coals, the ware is reduced by covering the coals with wet leaves/foliage or pulverized horse poo. The work in allowed to cool for several days, retrieved, cleaned up and ready to share with the world! To see more of my work, please visit my website at: www.whitecrowceramics.com

Both songs are by an amazing band called "Six Organs of Admittance"
