Tall Ceramic Vase

This is a vase that I made out of multiple slabs of clay.  A customer ordered it for their main entryway.  It is approximately 26" tall.  The bottom portion I embellished with slip.  I deliver it today ....hopefully they will be happy?

Cheese Platters

I sold a bunch of these over the holidays.  I texturize the pieces with various patterns and depths so that cheese will not slip off when cutting. Also, I use a satin/matte glaze so that the surface isn't so slick.



This design came out nice.  However I am not happy with how I left too much black sand on the surface that came through the white glaze.....live and learn.

Modern Mugs and Bowls

Here are a few bowls and mugs that came out of the kiln today.  People have been gravitating to the clean simple lines of these pieces.









Ceramic Pendants

Whenever my nephew and nieces visit they like to go into the studio to work in clay.  My nephew was here over the holidays and he made some pendants for his girlfriend.  I think he did a wonderful job.
