New Commission for Great Grandma!



The base disc is pre-fired. A second tack fuse firing follows 


Each leaf bears the name of a grand or great grandchild! Once the tree is tack fused, the disc will be slumped into a bowl

I've had a bit of fun (and challenge) working on this latest commission. It is a 14" iridized cobalt blue bowl with the tree of life as its theme.


There are 27 leaves, each with the name of a grandchild (in green and red) or great grandchild (yellow and orange)


Depicted here are two of the stages before firing....the finished bowl will appear in my next post!
