I had several pieces waiting for me at the ceramics studio today. Some are gifts so I can't show them all, but here are a couple I'm being greedy and keeping for myself. (The lighting in my kitchen was poo, the pieces are much more vibrant in person.)
First up is a medium-sized bowl. Perfect for spinach dip or hummus or Cool Ranch Doritos. I left a good amount of the clay body visible on this one because I love the contrast of red clay with green or blue glaze. The two glazes I used melted together to form a nice milky pool in the bottom.
Next up is a little bud vase that started out as a joke project after a bunch of us were playing with the extruder. We extruded a long star-shaped tube, and I ripped a hunk off it and made this. I guess it's some sort of lily abstraction. It was a total happy accident, but I think perfectly suited for some red renuculas or some equally peppy little flowers.
