Southern Ice and Lumina Porcelains with Teal Glaze
The teal glaze is a high gloss, blue green glaze fired to 1300°C. The glaze exhibits exceptional tonal variation appearing pale on areas of relief and pooling in the hollows to create a deeper tone. The glaze clearly delineates even very fine relief of 1mm or less. I have created a number of works with textured surfaces to utilise this tonal effect.
Southern Ice and Lumina Porcelains with Aurora Glaze
The exhibition Surface to Air also featured Southern Ice and Lumina porcelains with an aurora glaze.
Wheel Thrown
The wheel thrown works are created from one piece of porcelain. Many of the vessels are double walled while some are closed forms with the opening cut out before drying.
