Each piece is either thrown on the wheel or formed with slabs of clay and then finished with original designs using a sgraffito technique. Once the carving is done, I add a layer of liquid clay called terra sigillata.\u00a0 It is then dried and bisque fired. In the last stage it is glazed in green and fired again to cone 5 in an electric kiln. Although it has a decorative nature, my pottery is also very functional and dishwasher and microwave safe. My goal is to make pottery that brings a touch of the West Coast to your home during coffee time, teatime or any kind of mealtime. I hope you will enjoy using the pottery as much as I love making it.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Sgraffito\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><span style=\"color: blue; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;\">What is sgraffito?<\/span><\/strong><\/a> sgraffito is a decorating technique which involves scratching through a surface to reveal a contrasting colour underneath. In my case, I apply a dark coloured slip over a white clay body.<\/p>\n<p>Whenever the opportunity arises, I try to get out and photograph the landscape and wildlife that surrounds our community and eventually some of those images find their way onto the surface of a pot.<\/p>\n<p>If you would like to see some of the local wildlife that inspires my work,check out my instagram feed <a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/neillawrencephotography?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==\"><strong><span style=\"color: blue; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;\">@neillawrencephotography<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This handmade pottery mug is perfect for your morning cup of coffee or tea.
