#SaturdayShelfie - 8 April

Over on the Facebook group, Anna's Aussie Ceramics, we have a thing going where members post a pic of something of their own work - this is my contribution today.

The bowl is wheel thrown using Porcelain Paperclay then altered while still on the wheel.  The decoration is on leather hard clay before the bisque firing.  A clear glaze and then fired to Cone 10 or around 1280 degrees Celsius.

Enjoy your Saturday wherever you are today.

Hi Anna yes its a bit like throwing a grogged clay. Look up Clarissa Regan's work... mostly paperclay and highly decorated.
