Pinch me

It's taken me a long time to get there but here, finally is the first collection of begging bowls complete. They are pinchpots and each one would fit into your cupped hands. There was lots of experimenting. I played with two clays ~ stoneware and a pure white stoneware. I also played with underglazes of different whites. My favourite in the end being a "bone white." It just feels softer and with more empathy somehow.


I also designed an Art Nouveau inspired stamp in the process.


But wait,
there's more...
I'll show you tommorrow.
