It all started when…My mom traded a trailer for a kiln. Many, many years later, she created these vases and I painted them.
We are pleased to share our 4th collaboration with you!
Rosa
7 x 6.5 x 5.5 inches
Agnes
5.5 x 4 x 4 inches
All of these pieces began as a block of clay, wedged to remove air bubbles and get the clay particles aligned to go in the same direction, and then formed into the desired shape.
Yayoi
7 x 6.5 x 5.5 inches
Betye
6 x 5.5 x 5.5 inches
These were thrown in cold weather in Mom’s studio, which was chilly.
To remedy this, the water used for throwing was heated in a crockpot perfectly placed beside her wheel.
Hercules
7 x 5.5 x 5.5 inches
Persephone
5.75 x 6 x 5 inches
They were allowed to dry under careful conditions to prevent cracking, cleaned off rough edges, and bisque fired.
Shirin
6 x 5.5 x 5 inches
Hera
7.5 x 6 x 6 inches
All of these pieces were painted following the bisque firing and treated to a final clear, matte glaze and allowed to dry before the final glaze firing.
Alice
6 x 5 x 4.5 inches
Hilma
5.5 x 4.25 x 4 inches
All our pottery is dishwasher and microwave safe and is very durable.
Louise
7.25 x 6 x 6 inches
Apollo
8 x 7 x 6 inches
