Dots For Dollars

I like photographing my work in its birthplace, my studio space, its natural habitat.


Here is a bowl surrounded by the detritus of the creative process, newspaper (lots of newspaper), 44 oz. drinks (preferably caffeinated), the plastic cups and spoons I use when glazing. 



Here is some detail from that bowl.


Here, too.

This bowl uses some of the satin-finish glazes that recently became available at the studio where I work. I like their flat invariability. I applied the glaze by pouring, and with a paint brush, and with a metal-tipped squeeze bottle. The design was inspired by the Aboriginal art I wrote about recently, but it also draws on my own educational background in biology.

I like this bowl.
