# 2 swamp bowl
|
1 pound of brown speckled clay thrown into a medium walled bowl shape with some inward curve at the lip. Before bisque intermittent scrapes were placed on the outside surface of the bowl using a needle tool to create a textured surface. A red iron oxide glaze is added to a portion of the bowl surface. Floating blue is poured inside the bowl and dumped to coat. Finally sea-foam-green is added to the other half of the bowl over the red iron oxide. Some of the glaze is scraped and wiped away to expose the raw clay and create a tortured edge.
This is the 2th ceramic object I've made and the piece (and copies) were given to: Corey and Janet Carlous Andrews Nick Zank |
