A rare snippet of my decorating process. Here I’m filling in the monstera pattern on this planter with terra sigillata (a watery, refined clay slip) made with clay from Ontario. This is much different than painting—it’s basically glaze application. The difference is, I’m applying three layers of terra sig to achieve my desired result. If I apply the sig too thinly, it will come out brown. Three coats (and proper firing) gives me a rich olive green with a bit of variegation. #pottery #ceramics

@potterybyosa Wow. You paint really fast.

@potterybyosa Ooooh... and I really need a big outer pot for my new (well two years now) Monstera. But sadly I am far away... on the other side of the big pond and you don't ship outside the US. 😘

@fubaroque Maybe this is a good opportunity to search for potters who are close to you. I’m sure they’d appreciate the support.

@potterybyosa That will probably be my solution, indeed… eventually. 😉
Actually I once had an aunt… but she passed away a long time ago. I still have a lot of her stuff.
Anyway, just wanted to say that I really like the way you choose your shapes and colours. 🤩

@fubaroque Thank you!
Do you happen to have a picture of this one finished. I can imagine the colours from what you say about it, but it would also be nice to see them.

@fubaroque Of course! I’ll show the piece once it’s finished.

Glazing is amazing. I remember how she let me do it on my own master piece. (I was a bit younger then.)But applying the dull “paint” while having to imagine what the result will be… then waiting for the firing and finally seeing what you did. Just magic.

@potterybyosa I am sure that I was planning on more blue in this, at the time. And had to get over some disappointment when I saw what I had in fact done.
But then there has to be at least one defect in every work of art I have heard. 🤣

@potterybyosa I love watching artists like you explain the magic behind your craft!
I've always enjoyed the organic, variable designs that you can get on pottery, but had never really considered or appreciated the amount of work and planning that goes behind making those patterns and interactions happen in the first place. (Also achieving predictable levels of randomness and variation that allow you to produce multiple pieces in a harmonious series.)

Here’s the finished planter—a custom engagement gift for plant lovers beginning their lives together. The dark pink background is Alabama clay, and now you can see how the green Ontario clay looks on the leaves after firing. The other colors come from glazes that I make in-studio. The orchid was a gift given to me over a year ago and I hope it flowers again! I’m not great with orchids so keep your fingers crossed 🤞🏾 Now, she goes back in her hiding place, away from direct sun. #plants #pottery
