This semester

This semester, I've been taking a lot of classes, including ceramics and drawing. Here is something I made last night. It is a bowl I made using a form that looks like a taco salad shell. Then, I covered the clay in slip, which is just a form of really fluid clay with coloring in it. This slip will be white once it is fired. Underneath the white slip is normal red clay. When the slip dried, I etched this image into the slip, exposing the clay underneath. Some of the subtlety will be lost when it is fired, but I will probably use a bisque stain to bring out the etching. Enjoy.
