Broken bowls



 
In this work, I threw a lump of clay on the wheel, when it was leather hard, I turned it into a bowl form(solid upside down bowl or prototype) I then removed it from the wheel and made a one piece mould of it. When then mould was dry, I cast 3 bowls and broke it up while still bone dry. After bisque, I applied a peacock green strain to a white opaque glaze, applied it to the surface of my bowls and fired to 1100oC.
