"Straying" Away from the Dog Theme Plate

[dukedogsmom]

I got a gift card to a different pottery place for Christmas. I wanted to do something different. For a while, I just sat and stared at the blank plate before me. Then, I thought it would be neat to have a bunch of multi-colored stripes. The rectangles were an afterthought. That's why the paint shows through them I really wish I'd thought of the whole design before hand. The next one, I'm going to draw it all out ahead of time and be sure to use plenty of paint. Some of the colors aren't as solid as I'd like them to be. I think I'll make the next one with stripes and lots of different colored and sized circles. I'm pretty pleased with this plate, anyway. It kind of reminds me of stained glass.

Nice, Donna. Actually the transparent stuff works well - gives it some dimension. I used to design ceramics projects for the company that makes the glazes for those ceramic studios. Seeing you post your projects makes me wish my kiln was hooked up again! Have fun!
