Got back the first of the week a new vase made from porcelain clay, some extremely thin. Love the "skin" glaze effect much like textures on smooth tree trunk (dwarf jap. maple in background). Approx. 14" ht.
And for those of you who are into macro grunge, this vegatable leaf, cucumber, shows why they are a little prickly when picking.
My interest in ceramics and photography is often overlapping. Objects of interest to me sometimes come from random fallen leaves or layering of mountain range upon mountain range. A blending of glaze over textured clay gives controlled random color. A clay surface becomes a focus for flat abstract photograph. Leaf or flower structure becomes inspiration for ceramic texture. Finding the art is my goal.

Earth, sand and water
Study in texture, again. Small flow of watergoing to the ocean against the ledge of sand and footprints beyond. Love the warm 6AM colors of the sun.
