Just as I was about to begin glazing the suite of bisqued pots, my sculpture tutor came and told me I was making a big mistake following my carefully laid out CERAMIC glazing plan and I should do them all one colour. This had been an original idea of mine but I dismissed it subsequently because I felt it would look uninteresting.
I glazed 7 of them and how I hate them! Although there are subtle differences between them, there isn't sufficient interest to capture the viewer in my opinion. Also because the pots have shrunk about 15% in the firing, they don't have quite the sculptural impact I was aiming for. So, watch this space for last minute (3 weeks until assessment and SITE) alterations!
