First Fall Firing done....

This is an accumulation of work from the summer.  Basically, each piece is carved then dark slip is trailed into the carved lines.  The slip is wiped away leaving only the slip in the line.  From there decorations are painted on in various ways.  All of this is done on a porcelain clay body (or at least I thought it was all porcelain - some obviously isn't since it has a darker tint).  I'm going to include pics of the "in process" work prior to the final firing.




 There will be more of these bowls coming...I like the combination of texture and color.
 Details of big bowl.
I think these are my favorites - simpler pattern.
These are NOT porcelain, but they are growing on me.
 Just some heart shaped bowls.
I like these too! The cross hatches are becoming a favorite design.
