from the last post i had my work glazed with a quite opaque blue. some of the areas like the lip of the bows i wipes of the glaze to give a clear edge. i used this glaze as i wouldnt give a uniform finish overall. it would condence in small crevisays. i did this work to capture the fluid like state of the clay when being spun on the wheel. i feel it captures it perfectly.

from working in the ceramic room on the wheels i was drawn to experiment on my late evenings. there are just to bits of work. in the first we see my reprisentation of the top of the vortex.

 it highlights the turning almost wave motion within it.

the second and third image is a pise i did of the folding clag. i found when makeing hollow cones that if there was to much clay that it would tend to fold. i found the folds quite interesting as they all are slightly different but still follow a uniform rotashonal motion.

 football pitch and ally way

I just thought these images were cool. grove in the cold fog. these pictures dont show sadly the eary pressence the fog has in the ally way.

working with the broken fragments of my ceramic work iv also been looking at fragment art.

 taking somethingthats in peases and putting it back together. over chrismas il be travoling home to my family.

we live by a forest so by using my natural resorses i will be atempting to construct my stialised tree vortex. apologes for the image on the side. i couldnt figre out how to change it.

the blog below is showing work in prosses.

it has to be glazzed at the moment so when its done im sure il put it straight up!

 

this is the first time iv put up some of my working drawings. over the past blog you saw i had made larve ceramic work resemboling water vortexes. sadly they all broke in the killen. through this i worked the what i had and discoverd a way to use it. by makeing there buiscuits to go inbetween the work it exposes and exsenshuates the crack . by dooing this i am trying to highlight the fragments in time of the static tight.
