Bowls, Plates and Tree Printing

Today I spent a good chunk of time in the studio, I threw some more plates and twelve small bowls off the hump, so a very productive time for me.  I also rolled out two slabs of clay which I carried down the road to take a bark imprint.  I have been admiring the diamond pattern on the Silver Birch at the end of our road and have finally managed to do something about it.  The pattern transferred onto the clay really well but the impression is quite deep.  I plan to biscuit fire the textured clay and use it to create patterns for future pots.
Josie kindly videoed the event for me.
