Work In Progress #1

Some pictures of one of my many works in progress.

Am still deciding how to finish the piece. I have several ideas in mind ranging from using acrylic paint washes/embellishments to incorporating hand made Japanese paper.

Hand built sculptural paper clay, southern ice porcelain paper clay. Black mountain sculpture clay and feldspar crystals were used to coat the inside of the pod.

The main piece was fired to Cone 10 reduction. The more delicate "tendrills" were fired to Cone 5 and then assembled. The white glaze on the flared opening is beaded white (Cone 10) on white porcelain paper clay.
