Lockdown Pot #3

This hand-coiled, stoneware pot is the largest I’ve made to date, so still a learning curve for me.

I’m wishing I could visit the Makerspace in Colchester to actually throw some pots, but whilst we’re still in lockdown here in the UK, I’m making do on my kitchen table.

I’ve almost finished illustrating it with underglaze; it includes both personal family and generic “lockdown’ images, all over-laying the continually growing plant background, that is nature continuing on regardless!

I’m looking forward to firing it and then retiring with transparent glaze to really bring our the colours.
