Pitcher

The two different glazes help in accentuating the dip of the lip. This 4x4 inch pitcher is wheel thrown. There are visible throw marks at the foot. The glazes used are opaque white and a mix of opaque and black. The outside of the Pitcher is bumpier and the inside is very smooth. The grey glaze, spilling over the the opaque white helps in showing the curve of the project and combines the bumpy and smooth textures together.

Pot-Extra Credit



The two colors combine to create a third color creating another characteristic of the pot. This 5x5.5 inch cylinder is wheel thrown. This project has grooves on the exterior from being thrown as well as on the interior. The glazes used are tomato red and opaque white. The red glaze spells vertically over the horizontal throw marks. The two colors combine on the outside creating another dimension to the pot.

Set of Three

All 3 projects are united though the glazes and glazing styles. This 7.5x1 inch plate is wheel thrown. There are throw marks on both the top and the bottom of the plate. The glazes used are opaque white and shadow green. The vertical glaze drips over the top of the horizontal throw marks. This 2x5 inch bowl is wheel thrown. The throw marks are visible closer towards the bottom of the bowl. The dark shadow green stands out very well on the opaque white. This 3x4 inch cup is wheel thrown. The throw marks are only visible on the outside. The texture of the inside (the shadow green) is smooth and the outside (the opaque white with green drips) is bumpy. With all 3 projects colored opaque white and shadow green with a dripping effect, they are all united.
