Hand painted cherry blossom platter.
Details:
- 12 inches round and 1 3/4 inches tall
~ Clear glaze
~ Food, dishwasher, and microwave safe
My process:
I make this plate on the potter's wheel. After it has been trimmed and had some time to dry, I apply a red slip to the whole the platter's front and back. This gives me a vibrant canvas to paint red and pink cherry blossoms on. It has a faint swirl in the center of the platter.
Platter is finished with a clear glaze inside and out and fired in an electric oxidation kiln.
