Sassy Modern Bowl

Items I create are hand-thrown pottery from clay on a wheel in my studio or occasionally hand-formed flat pieces. All are unique, one-of-a-kind and there are no production runs of this work. Nor are the pieces dipped in glaze - they are all hand painted with multiple coats to achieve a rich dimensional glaze look.

My bowls and vases are fired TWICE in a kiln, the first firing is a bisque fire where I apply an underglaze color by hand - typically three coats of color so there is layer of background color on every piece. After that firing, I then create the intricate designs with special adhesive tape and/or dots and sculpt some items with a sponge to create the modern contemporary look of my pottery. After the design, three more coats of glaze color are hand painted on. When dry, I remove the tape and dots and on select items, give the bottoms a distinctive red coat. At this time, I return to the kiln to fire the finished piece to a wonderful lead-free gloss finish.

The entire process is highly laborious, but I love the simple, whimsical and unique look of every piece. I am constantly experimenting with color combinations, design concepts and ultimately the actual use of these pieces for my friends, customers and my own home. I hope you enjoy the pieces for many years to come and I look forward to your feedback on my work. Yours in Clay . . . Eva.
