Description

One of my ceramic creations I designed whilst studying the art of Impressionism at college during the 1990’s, slip clay was used for this design, the rippled dish was moulded by hand, 2 layers of different shades of blue slip were used as underglaze and clear glaze over the whole item, then photographed on a beechwood table and bordered in blue, I love the contrasts of this design. the cream coloured maple leaf is related to maple syrup flavoured ice cream and this dish can be used to serve it in at Thanksgiving or any other celebration, whereas the original design was intended to be an ice cream serving dish especially for maple syrup recipes
