Split Vases May 2011


Split Vases Progress


Wheel throwing.


A few pieces that I wheel threw, ready to be stacked!


Excited to start work.


Building the base, going off my sketches.


Building the vase up piece by piece.


Working hard!


A few vases in the works, notice all of the finger prints.

 

Smoothed and ready for the next step.


Had to let the clay dry a bit and then cut into the vase.


One cut in the back and ready to start another.


Vase drying and ready to be glazed.


Here I am applying special glazes to the vases.


A dark glossy inside and a midnight blue outside with crackles.  The colors will change in the kiln.


Painting on the glaze.


Finished and ready to be fired in the kiln!

Finished pieces!







Flowers!




All together.
