Red-Glazed Porcelain Test cup 2

November 30th, 2009 by Kater

red-glazed-porcelain-test-cup-2.jpg

We use this bowl to give my youngest daughter soup.  She’s the carbohydrate kid; she only likes cheese, fruit, and refined carbohydrates.  I give her soup anyway, hoping eventually she’ll grow out of her pickiness.

It’s a smallish bowl, and I adore the color.

Scraffito Cup Two

November 14th, 2009 by Kater

scgraffito-cup-2.jpg

After the first scraffito cups details all got washed out in the high firing, i decided to make it easier on myself and use a simpler technique. I used a scratchboard tool to make fine vertical lines up and down the cup, and radiating out from the center of the saucer. Since I wasn’t trying to preserve the detail, I used a different glaze, Cherie jade instead of Kurt klear. It’s a pale celadon color.

Crow Sculpture

November 10th, 2009 by Kater

I made this sculpture, like the falcon one, so that it would sit on a wall.  I meant them originally to both be crows, but one started looking like a falcon so I went with it.  I don’t like how chubby this looks.  Crows do not perch on their bellies like this, I’m pretty sure, but making thin legs out of ceramic and expecting them to not break off was out of the question.

I used silicone to glue this to the top of the cinder block wall seperating our yard from the alley. I’ve had problems in the past with people stealing things that were placed along the back wall, but I’m hoping that since it’s glued down, it will be okay.
