The bowls from last Tuesday night’s class have been sitting in my studio under plastic for a few days. Last night I finally got around to doing some stamping & detailing. I would love to continue this demo with my students in class, but I’m always afraid that they will dry too far if I were to wait until next Tuesday. So hopefully, they will see how their class demo bowls have progressed here on the blog… just like the rest of you!
Flanged Bowls with a border of stamps.
Flared & Fluted Bowl with a border of stamps.
Wide Flange Bowl with a border of stamps.
Split Rim with pinches… with little balls of clay attached at the pinch-points with a small stamp.
Two-Fluted Bowl… I thought it would be fun to stamp just one side of the bowl.
Dragonscale Flower… so I used the same dragon scale tool to decorate the rim.
Split Rim, Pinched & Rounded Bowl – I added small balls of clay at the pinch points, and then textured just the inner rim of the split using a pointed wooden tool.
Lotus-fluted Split Rim – the previous textured split rim was nice, so I did it again!
Slip Spiral Bowl with a stamped rim.
Ombre Slip Bowl with a simple textured rim.
Banded Slip Bowl with a simple textured rim.
Slip Chattered Bowl with a textured rim from a rounded wooden tool.
And now that all of the demo bowls have been stamped & detailed, they are back under some plastic hoping to be trimmed tomorrow,
