This site is a collection of photos and comments documenting my ceramics pieces. I have been taking ceramics class at Portland Community College since the Summer of 2010.

2 vases, recycled clay. Thrown, carved. Reduction fired
These two small vases were thrown from recycled clay, bellied out when wet. I added some faceting to the top vase after bellying out and carved into the surface beforehand. Glazing used Phila / woo yellow on the upper vase and cream rust / sky celadon on the lower. Some Phila ended up dripping into the interior of the top vase, creating a nice turquouse water fall into the vase. I think both Phila and Woo yellow look great in reduction - kind of aged and weathered with a lot of depth and texture to the color.
