Carved Roses On A Vase

If you've always wanted to make pottery, then you've come to the right place. In 2003 I began making pottery and ceramics. Pottery starts with clay and glazes, raw materials. There is no limit to what can be made. Through videos and blogs, I will share my wealth of knowledge on how a bag of clay is turned into beautiful ceramics.

Carved Roses On A Vase

After I turned black clay into this vase I wanted to carve something around it, for a unique vase of my style. An elegant black vase would have been nice too, but there are many of those. I am a gardener and love flowers, roses it had to be.

After this vase was almost dry, I painted a white clay slip around it. Slip is liquid clay. Once again, I waited until the slip had no sheen on it, then the carving began. Pottery is often waiting for something to dry, just to the right stage.
