eARTh Bowls are Easy

I am working on a little something for the "Mother Earth" show at Eclectics. I threw these bowls yesterday and brushed black slip on them. This morning I trimmed the feet and now I am carving through the slip to create the little earth art. They will get a bisque fire and a clear glaze and I will probably glaze the outsides in greens and blues. I really like this scraffito technique and I will definitely do more.

The "Mother Earth" show is April 24th 5:00-8:00. Please stop by if you are able. If you follow my blog, you know I have been working on tiki cups for the "Tiki Tea" in July but I still need a project for "Bella Luna" in October.
