Symmetrical Vases

Blueware Vases
Plants and flowers are stuck to the surface of the vases using a pressing techniques. The vases are then exposed to UV light on a rotating spit, capturing the plant from leaf to root, similar to white on blue Jasperware cameos. The UV light exposure causes the white of the clay to turn a Prussian blue.




Laguna Clay
Wheel-thrown stoneware vases with shino glaze.
Dripping method at top with cracking results after kiln. Notice bottom width and top hole are about the same width. Dimnsions 14 x 7, 11 x 7, 11 x 9
