Scholastics Platter

This is a Celadon Platter, thrown in stoneware, with Tom Coleman's porcelain slip then applied to the inside of the platter. I used Matt Long's Fraizer Green on the inside of my platter and Orange shino on the outside of the platter. This piece was fired in ^10 reduction.

I am happy with the results, I especially like the lines made by the porcelain slip because it allowed the glaze to pool into the lines, creating various contast in the deepness of the colors.

This was photographed and sent into scholastics, where it will be judged and hopefully accepted into the show within Colorado and possibly sent into the national show.

I was inspired by Matt Long and his use of procelain slip within his work. In future times, I would like to create a platter that is larger in size.
