Ceramics -- Pharaoh's Vase
This vase (or bowl) was built using slab construction. The clay was Little John which tends to crack on the edges. This gives the work a lot of interest and excitement. The glaze is Utah Red over Zeller White. The white glaze causes the red to shift to a greenish color and have rust-colored highlights wherever there are edges, cracks or indentations. I especially love the random splotches of red that come through. The vase is 6 inches high and 6 1/2 inches in diameter.
Ceramics -- Ancient Vessel
This vessel is supposed to resemble an ancient treasure box. It is 11 inches x 6 inches x 5 inches and is glazed with Million Dollar Yellow brushed over Utah Red. It is slab construction.
