“Wild Extravagant Livers of Life” pottery is designed and created by Katherine Owen in her SC home studio. Her life's attitude is reflected in her colorful and joyful mugs and vases. Katherine utilizes the sgraffito technique:
This begins by applying a coating of a contrasting colored slip to the damp or leather-hard clay. The slip and clay are then allowed to stiffen until both are leather-hard. At that point, designs or patterns are incised or carved down through the the slip into the clay body beneath. The designs are enhanced due to the contrast between the color and tonal qualities of the slip and clay. The character of the lines and carving will be effected by the tool(s) used and the dryness of the slip and clay when the incising is done.
Each and every piece is unique.
This vase is titled, Celebrate Change" and is about 8" tall, with the top opening being 5.5" across. Use as a flower vase, a decorating accent, or a container (to hold your wooden spoons, your paint brushes, or anything you need to contain).
