You might remember a couple of months ago I made a bunch of forms during the spring pentaculum residency at Arrowmont?
I’ve been blocked, and unable to finish them because they have already been fired. My normal technique is to decorate while the clay is still wet–allowing me to carve and scratch and inlay the surface.
With a fired pot, I have less options-the obvious one is to brush underglaze designs, which is a little bit out of my comfort zone.
After a few hours of painting, I gotten into a flow of using just underglaze and a brush–instead of carving, and I’m really happy with the surface designs I’ve created so far!
stay tuned to see the cups after the final glaze firing!
