Paper clay, underglaze

18 x 10 cm

I created this vase using paper clay and a slab building technique. The repetitive pattern was applied to the surface using a sgraffito technique. The pattern was developed from drawings of leaves I collected at school. Great care has been taken in carving the design on the surface; the direction of the carved marks unifies the work and I like the way this adds texture.
