Medium Bowl #7
This piece turned out very raw - the brush strokes held in the glaze more than I expected them too. I actually sort of like the finished product, though it's rough and unpolished (unlike most of my work):
It's a decent sized bowl, probably large enough for a serving of soup. When you take a look at the inside you really see the brush strokes in the glaze. I wasn't sure I'd like the black/white contrast, but there is something oddly appealing about it:
Ying Yang #13
Lucky (or unlucky) #13 turned out like this:
I still really like this series, but I'm starting to get bored of the form. I'll probably move on to something else, but in a pinch if I need to make wedding presents and such, this will be a fall-back. Actually, the glaze combo on this turned out really nice - the bright green is a great contrast to the cream, and although you can't see much of it in the pictures, there are black speckles throughout the glaze.
Tall Desk Bowl #1
This is a taller bowl about the size of the desk bowl sort of series -- not large enough to be a batter bowl, but similar in shape. I really like how the blue and purple meshed in the glaze runs on the side:
Here is a view from the inside which demonstrates the depth of color - browns and reds emerge from the inside firing ring:
