Yoga Goddess & new glazes

This red clay lady has some eggshell glaze lightly applied, leaving her mainly her natural color, of course. Appropriately.

Close up showing some of the glaze.

Close up of her earthy feet, which have something like roots and indeed, she is related to a tree in many ways.


Other foot and root detail.



Yoga Goddess was fired in an electric kiln to cone 6. She stands about 20 inches high.




When a picture was taken in a different environment, the red clay looks different in color. This yoga goddess belongs in Deb Vingle's collecion of art. Deb is my yoga teacher.





This bowl is Little Loafers clay with a sponged on glaze combo. The bowl was thrown, then split on the 4 sides, and then reattached where the splits were overlapped. Top diameter is about 10 inches.






I like this glaze especially. A thrown base, with carved foot area, then slab applied in little torn patches on the upper area.







The sponged on glaze combination is my favorite glaze at this time. This vase stands about 13 inches high.








Detail of the foot area.









Inside the patched pieces of slab have been smoothed together, creating a seamless interior.
