Technique info:
Incised layered slip - I paint layer upon layer of slip (liquid colored clay) inside these bowls to create a
multicolor stata. Once the slips set-up to a consistency conducive to carving, I cut back through the slips
creating different color fields, attempting to carve back to the desired color, but no deeper. It is a technique
designed to be imperfect with a planned for, but unplanned, mottling that happens when I "go outside the lines."
