I feel like I labored over a handful of pots all day. Sort of unsure about them, thinking, drawing in the sketch book, drawing on pots, then etching them in. The day went by slowly. I've got a bisque going now. That goat bowl is a special order and the yunomi is just a test. I liked taking that clay away from the background but then I was left with a lot of white space between the circles. Robert Crumb once said that drawing was just an excuse to crosshatch. My motto is, "When in doubt, crosshatch. " So that's what I did to fill in the space.
