SCOT-FREE

This was a quick, impromptu picture on the slab roller, just before getting this teabowl packed and shipped out the door a couple months back. The stoneware clay had sand and some grog wedged into it prior to being thrown and then it was rather hastily faceted just after it was thrown. The surface ended up with a lot of texture and then once bisque I used my saffron yellow glaze over the amber, adding a thick coat. The results show a fair degree of movement with lots of the original clay texture showing throw for a rather rustic and modest appearance. Given the amount of glaze and my mortal enemy, gravity, I was fortunate this walked away scot-free despite the aggressive glazing as all has ended well despite such a turbulent beginning and reckless glazing.
