VASES

Nearly in my eighty-eighth year and one still finds temptation to play 'silly buggers,'as I rudely call experiments. I don't know myself whether they are vases, or sculptured vase-forms. Stoneware, and about 33 cms tall. .Not thrown, but wrapped around a form. I don't even know whether I like it, but I'll wait and see. 2013

Pretty much the same as the previous form. About the same height and made the same way. Stoneware, 35 cms, 2013

Back

I used the lemon-scented gum branches in an earlier pic as inspiration for the surface. (I refuse to say the word 'decoration.') One doesn't ask a painter does he 'decorate' his canvas, Stoneware, 26 cms. 2013. Iron oxide from Western Australia Pilbara area.
