My abstraction ceramic press mould bowl!

 
My ceramic bowl was based on a few design sheets. My idea started from a painting in my sketchbook, the shape of the rock inspired me to create a rugged shape bowl. I wanted to use the press mould process because I think it was perfect for the abstract theme. The use of combined shapes and textures creates one overall abstract work.


 
For the inside of my bowl I wanted to echo the rugged, harsh textures of the rocks so I created a cracked effect on the inside.

 
Using my test sample I decided on which glazes I wanted to use. I really liked the cobalt blue oxide with the perfect red glaze on top.

 
So after painting the glaze on my bowl is in the kiln and ready to be fired! Awating results!
