Soft Break - calm water lapping on the beach

Construction

  • Clay: White Raku
  • Underglaze for the blues
  • Obvara for the golds

The pot was thrown on the wheel then painted on one side with blue underglazes. At the leatherhard stage, he pot was burnised bluring the colours at the same time a smoothing the surface.

The biscuit fired pot was then heated in a Raku kiln before being dipped in an obvara yeast mix, with mostly the white clay covered. It was then quenched to retian the gold colours.
