My second course in ceramics. Hours of practice to fine tune steady hands for symmetrical, smooth shapes. This collection plays with color combinations using 2 clays. 

Clay: Navajo Wheel
Glaze: Amaco Velvet Electric Blue underglaze with clear gloss glaze

Clay: Navajo Wheel, Bmix
Glaze: Various underglaze and glaze colors

Dripped blue underglaze onto the bowl interior while spinning on the wheel. Glossy clear coat on top gives the final color on the upper right of the color chip.
