It all started with a gift...

In the summer of 2021, my grandmother gave me a ceramics kiln and all of her old supplies. She had kept all of her materials in pristine condition, so that they could still be used as intended 30 years later. I will be forever grateful for this great gift, and the ability to practice with ceramics at my parents house.

After receiving the kiln, bisqueware, glazes and brushes, I spent the first months organizing all my newly gained materials. I researched how the oven is supposed to work online, and tried to fire my first pieces of pottery. A s a test, I made a set of seven egg cups and I painted readymade bisqueware that I received from my grandmother. After being disappointed by the results, I made glaze test tiles in the shape of water droplets.
