Pinching and Slipping


Fooling around with pinching and slipping again today. We finally had a good soaking rain of more than two inches and last night I noticed there were lots of fireflies out.


I've used Florida clay slip and porcelain slip on these first two. I've made these really thin consequently this one tore apart on one side so I left it that way.


I'm using black and chartreuse slip on the next two. I decided to put a surprise in the bottom of each of these two bowls.





Back to work for me. Thanks for reading and for all your comments.

  2. These are great pieces Linda - your slip application really adds to the movement on that first cup. And I love the black & yellow marks on the bowl -- and the surprises in the bowls :-)
