Green Yunomi


The weather was more than cooperative so I'm unloading the kiln right now and taking photos. Here's a green yunomi made with my strip stacked construction method which gives a wonderful tactile experience when holding the cup. I'm glad I used green on the interior. I thought white would be too stark. I'm loving my hand feathered underglaze decoration. I can't wait to make a tower with this same decoration. It's funny how one technique can lead me in so many directions. More photos soon. Thanks for reading and for all your comments.
