This is an example of some of my newest carving and textures. Many of my new pieces for fall will feature complex designs that are intricate in texture, yet blend with the overall design.

New Raku

This is one of my newest pieces, a combination of the burnished black and the rich copper. Intricate designs have been carved into the area that I will glaze. The over all contrast between the smooth blackness and the vibrant copper gives my raku an updated look. This piece can be seen in an exhibition at the Mendenhall Administration Building on the Davidson County Community College, Lexington, NC. This piece as well as three others will be on exhibit until Dec 10th, 2012.

I have just removed a piece from the kiln at 1900 degrees and placed it into a trash can lined with newspaper. The fire will alter the glaze and reduce the copper, bringing out all of the beautiful colors of copper.
