Round, White, Organic
​

In this series, I've mostly pared the vessels to a simple shape: a gentle lift from the table surface to straight cylindrical sides.  The numbers, shapes, and sizes of the extensions vary, making for a surprising overall variety of form.  The heights also vary, so that groupings of vessels will be interesting.  (Note: there are more vessels in this series, in more sizes - not all are shown here.)

There are also other shapes in this series, including wide, shallow presentation bowls and pairs of lamp bases.

​White Objects


​Small and White 2

A series of six double-walled vessels.  These can be seen as tall, shallow bowls, or extremely thick vessels, or sculptures.  The clay body is a robust, textured white stoneware.  The glaze is slightly translucent white with touches of vanilla, with a smooth, low-sheen finish.



Small and White

A series of white vessels with lids, 8 to 11 inches tall.  All are lowfired, sculptural whiteware with a smooth white glaze.


White Series 2:  White Towards Turquoise

A white clay body with plenty of rough texture.  Three white glazes: sand-textured, eggshell-smooth, and shiny.  In places, the clay body interacts with glaze to form a vanilla color.  Copper is used to tint some of the surfaces towards turquoise.  Sometimes other muted colors are used as well.  A textured dark glaze is used in certain areas for emphasis.



White Series 1:  White Sand and Gray-Green

Terra cotta body, white sand-textured glaze, with a gray-green glaze on the inside.  Where the clay body shows through, a blush color happens.
