Two years of pot making

Hi thanks for the kind words. Interested to know how you think I need to refine my glazing ? Yes I do take some commissions but at the moment I’m super busy with works and a project for future customer. Watch this space.

Best.

So almost three years to the day I made my first pot. Today seven of my latest pots hit the Mirai store. Check them out.
An amazing journey and im so thrilled to be a part of the Mirai community of Ceramicists.

Beautiful work, Nick. If you don’t mind my asking, can you describe how you made the dragon scale surface textures? Did you fashion a tool to make the impressions one by one? Started at bottom and worked upward? I’m fascinated by what the process was.
Thanks for any elaboration.

I did make a tool. Each scale is done by hand one by one. I hope you don’t mind if I don’t elaborate more. :grinning:
