Porcelain Page: the idea came from experimenting with porcelain for thee first time. I wanted to do something delicate and i had noticed the many types of plants on the walk to school so imbedded them into the "page" with the idea to make a porcelain book.
Testing Tiles with plants at Cone 6: this guy in the studio is experimenting with what happens when you high fire plants, some of them have made a glaze. This time I high fired the tiles with the plants in them and some made a little kind of glaze thing.
Tiles with Labels: I tried to label the things that I knew but really the words divert your attention away from the plant that has been imprinted.
Final Tiles: As this is for a sculpture class i wanted to resolve the above experiments. These are more formal tiles than the high fired ones above and are only to a high bisque fire 1050 degrees C. I have arranged them so they are pictures in themselves but i will present them as a group.
