Dragon Vase


With all the snow we've been having you would think I'd be very busy in the pottery studio, making delicious pots. Hmmmm, well, let's just say that I've been busier than I would have liked with things other than mud however, my hubby and I have taken a few photos of some of my latest work. I'll post a few each week and tell you all about them.
Dragon Vase is a piece that I made back in Winnipeg at The Blue Door Clay Studio, Kevin Kushnier's place. The design is a dragon inspired by a drawing of a petroglyph at Nanaimo Petroglyph Park. I painted the dragon on the leather-hard pot in black slip. It was bisqued and then glazed in Dry Shino and fired it to cone 9 in a gas kiln. It measures 12 cm x 12 cm.
