This piece is about 8 inches long.
This series shows once-fired surfaces from a recent project. The goal was to make pieces that did not reflect an obvious human touch.
The clay was rolled super-thin (1-3 mm) with fireplace ash and leaves. Some pebbles got into the mix too. After firing I lightly applied a wax coat and then oxides and other powdered pigments (yellow ochre, copper carbonate, and copper oxide). The black copper carbonate in particular brought out the wonderful random lines left by leaves, twigs, and other debris.
I decided not to fire again after the bisque firing. Pieces that had more wax look flatter and more metallic. Those with less wax show the wonderful random lines more clearly.
The Surface's surface. I asked the marketing chick about their choice of compliant surface, and she was only able to tell me "microdots." So there you have it--microdots. My mousepad is made of those, too, so we'll just see about that.
