Here is the latest in my Large white bowl series. It measures @ 12" across and @ 3 1/2" in height. As with all handmade art , it it is not is completely uniform, but then again, neither am I. What makes this so unique are the decorative touches of real Arizona Turquoise. It doesn't go in your oven or the microwave, but it is fully functional for food or decoration. This glaze is actually totally clear. Fired to a temperature over 2000 degrees F, it is food safe and very strong. What you are seeing is the white porcelain clay beneath it. I intentionally leave the outside with a rough exterior , so I can decorate with the iron oxide that makes the Sedona rocks red in color. I like the juxtaposition of the smooth inside with the rough exterior. Kind of like life I guess. Comments?
Looking good! Missing you at the co-op but you are going strong.
ReplyDeleteLike your analogy of "smooth inside/rough outside" as in life.
