Blue Lightning Raku Bowl

This is one of my favorite pieces. The bowl cracked during the thermal shock of the raku process, and I was giving it up as ruined when a friend suggested filling the crack with a contrasting sculpy clay. The turquoise blue "lightning" shoots into the bowl and a blood-red explosion erupts opposite. It's better now than if it had never cracked! See more of my pottery at www.KimberlyPottery.etsy.com
