We have been making ceramic plates for several weeks now in Dudley Road Studios, and here are some of the results.
Jill made this plate for a friend who lives on a narrow boat in Oxford.
I like the ferns – they come from my garden and were pressed into the clay using a rolling pin. I also like the irregular shape of the plate.
The blue and yellow come from Botz under glazes. There’s a transparent glaze on top.
Pretty pink flowers…again, we used Botz under glazes with transparent glaze on top.
A bird in the hand…plaster sprig moulds of birds were used to create the birds on this plate, and cobalt and copper oxide daubed on to add colour. Again, we used a transparent glaze to seal in the colour.
I will upload my website with new workshops soon, so please go here to find out what’s in store.
