Daisy Bowl


It's been a hugely busy week in the studio. I'm trying some things I haven't attempted before. This large bowl for instance ... I lined a favorite glass bowl of mine with newspaper and coiled the clay inside the bowl, smoothed it .. let it dry a bit, took it out, smoothed the outside and added daisy sprigs.


Now it's under plastic drying very very slowly and I'm hoping for NO cracks. We'll see. This took no time to type but it sure did take a long time to make this bowl.


I like the look of the inside of the bowl, too. It's smooth but the smoothing outward created some subtle but interesting texture, as if a flower was in bloom.
