Large Vase Progression

This is the progression of a resent commission.
The piece measures approximately 
14" long x 12" wide x 8" tall.
This alone presented 
several challenges.
    
The interior structure secures the shape, lessens the
risk of warping.
After a domed top was added, 
I worked on the layout of the 
flowers.
Flowers are held in place until firing with 
wooden skewers after painting on underglazes.

A Few Favorites

I pulled this composite together
recently,
not intending, but realizing, they're
a few of my 
favorites.

Lots of Stripes, Vases and Mugs!

I love using stripes.
Maybe it's the comfort
of a pattern,
both for the viewer
and the artist.

Ceramic Flower Box

Working out the logistics
on this new piece.

Exploring more Flowers and Vase Forms

I am continuing to explore new forms
of flowers and vases.
Single flowers and bouquets.
Square and round forms.
More components to the flowers.
