Title: Raku Narrow Neck Vase

Year of Creation: 2012

Glaze: Copper fumed glaze

Clay Body: White stoneware with added molochite

Dimensions: Height 9.84 inches

Artist's Statement: Firing raku for more than 30 years, the immediacy of the copper fuming process influences how I work. Colour and form are important and the balance between a tight thrown form and the unpredictability of the fumed copper surface keeps things interesting.
