Carving Bowls....

I'm trying different decorating techniques...today I carved one of my bowls then applied a black underglaze. I will continue to practice my carving on imperfect pieces. When I'm better at throwing then my carving skills will also be up to par and my glazing technique. Everything will just flow together at the same time...right!? : } Bowls to be continued.......

    1. Thank you Linda! I was going to glaze it with a clear glaze but I'm tempted to experiment with a different color.
