The tankard that i am making in my pottery class will hopefully be on the same lines as this fine example of studio design,i love the change of line in the body and the natural curve of the handle.
If it is a tenth of the quality here i will be happy.

I went to the open day today,the weather was great and the Racu firing went ahead.Unfortunately there was no room to take pic's but it was a great day out and very educational.
Also lots of fun.

Looks a bit like a slug 'til i get the legs on!

I do like tea pots,i once made a fat old troll with a tail that was a handle and a huge woody that was the spout.
He was well funny.

My latest project,a tankard with ram's horn handle.

Seriously though, I love the way the bottom makes the mouth. Very artistic, reminds me of Edvard Munch's The Scream

I was just thinking that Lynne, great minds eh?

Actually Lynne the mouth is the mouth of the vase.My favorite part is the sweeping curve of the brow.

Oh, is the face upside down ?

I assumed it was an ornamental piece rather than a functional vase. But I guess it could be displayed either way up?
