The most of the UK had snow today. The studio (shed) temperature won’t go up much even though the gas stove is set on full power. Putting a plenty of layered cloths on, I try to finish off a turning job but clay is too wet to do so. Instead I am literally just watching clay to dry. Used to like a snowy day when I was a kid. It is rather problematic when I face a deadline. xm
I have seen a Korean artist hang burning charcoal in a perforated metal container inside the work while it was spinning on the wheel. There is something about this type of heat that dried the clay evenly. There is always a propane blow torch as well. Good luck. Nina
Brrrrrr... hang in there!
