New Wheel Thrown Houses

I was trained as a potter, and still love to throw pots on the potter’s wheel periodically. I challenged myself in 2024 to throw whiteware cylinders and then cut and fold them to create these new, wheel thrown houses. Each one is unique in shape and size. Once the wet pieces are finished and dried, they are bisque fired, black stain is applied to the incised lines and then a clear glaze is applied. After the clear glaze is fired, the ceramic decals are applied along with the gold luster and the houses are fired again. Each house tells a story.
