Funky fabulous!!! Holy crap- this is so cool Jamie!! How awesome would this be with a plant in it?? Are you keeping it forever and ever? Can you love it more than I could?? :)

I love the colour and that it reflects the sky. How did you come up with it and what is it made out of?

@ Cassie - Thankssss!

@ Sara - I am NOT keeping this forever and ever. Don't get me wrong, I love the form. I spent 10+ hours on it, so I definitely love it, it just didn't turn out the way I was expecting. Someone contaminated the glaze.....it was supposed to be higby water blue--think aqua with tiny black crackles all over to make it look antique. So yea, definitely going to try to get rid of it AS soon as grading is over.

@ BlueBelle - It's made of raku clay, fired to 1800 degrees, and had a beautiful glaze on it. What I didn't know is that someone had contaminated the glaze, which caused it to do funky things. This was sort of an accident.
