GREEN ENERGY

This short video was one of the first that I made using my new phone camera and I think it gives a good insight into the actual look, texture, color and dimension of this Oribe impasto bottle which has quite a bit of green energy to show off. Though the surface color changes depending on the light source, this video at least shows off the depth of the surface in terms of both glaze quality and the actual topography of the tokkuri bottle. The stoneware bottle was thrown and squared up and then I applied a thick white porcelain slip impasto style to alter the surface from where the slip ended and the stoneware capped off the form. Nothing revolutionary but the video is a nice addition to helping give a fuller perspective to a pot on a screen.
