Blue dye slip pot

This is my pot, I threw it on the wheel and then covered it with blue dyed slip, after getting fired I was happy with how the colors looked so I just put a clear glaze over top to give it a shine like gloss glaze. I am happy with the outcome of this piece and think it was very successful, I was going to throw a lid to sit in the opening as I made a lip on the inside of the piece, where the lid would lay, but being as I broke my arm the very next day I have been unable to do so.

Buddha painting in the works

 This is the start of my piece or Buddha, I decided against coloring the piece as you would traditionally do and instead I went with a Pablo Picasso style of painting the piece. The piece is still unfinished, I hope to have it done in a weeks time. I think i am on the correct path with how I am painting it. I think I will do more things like this piece in the future, I can't wait till I finish it.
