We just got back from a trip up the Rhine from Amsterdam in the Netherlands to Basel in Switzerland. So I haven't been creating any new pots for a while. Here are two more from the last batch.
As you can see, they both have the rough vase body that you saw before. They are both about 7.5 inches tall. The one on the left is about 4 inches in diameter. The one on the right is about 3.5 inches in diameter.
The one on the left had a green engobe applied to the top. (An engobe is a clay slip - runny clay mixture.) Clear glaze was applied over the engobe. The bottom was left as bare clay.
The one on the right was dipped in 2 glazes. The top was dipped in "Sun Valley Rutile" - a glaze that shows different colors depending on the clay body. The bottom was dipped in Navy Blue.
The river boat trip was fun. I came back with some new ideas for creating pots. I'll point them out when the completed pots are ready.
