My art work of “Horsehair-Raku-Mishima Soul Disk” is included in the new booklet from the “JaKunst” (YesArt) organization titled: Tussen realiteit en Verbeelding / Between reality and imagination.
New artworks
I made some new work: the Mishima inlay technique combined with the Horsehair Raku burning and spraying of Ferric Chloride. I cut my designs with a knife for getting the straight lines (not easy with the added grog in the clay) and with some other fine cutting tools I take off a layer of 1 - 2 mm of the white clay. I fill in this space with black clay. Of course, the clay is leather hard and I may even wet it a little more to get good adherence. I tested different kinds of clay to get the same shrinkage rate.

Article of "SHORT and STOUT" ICAN Exhibition in Pottery Illustrated Magazine
My teapot “Horsehair Raku Mishima” teapot is included in an article in the Pottery Making Illustrated magazine of the May/June 2020 issue. Due to the cancellation of the NCECA conference end of March 2020, where the teapots would have be shown, they have chosen to showcase the 20 amazing teapots, chosen by editor and ceramic artist Katie Sleyman, in the magazine Pottery Making Illustrated. They have paired the teapots with Ivor Lewis’ article that elaborates on the important considerations of making each part of the teapot.
Please, enjoy the article and beautiful teapots.
