You may think it's wonky but I'd be proud to sit on my deck on a late summer morning such as this in my boxer briefs, enjoying a cheap cigar and my first cup of coffee of the day with that beautiful mug.

Roger that color is heavenly! I like the pattern on it. How did you do the pattern?
They are beautiful. I understand mindful coffee mug...I have several "favorites", mostly thin, curved rims and handles that go well with my mouth and hand. I also have 2 Polish pottery mugs that are perfectly smooth with a rounded bowl. I still mourn over the two favorite mugs that I've broken- one in 1970...and one in 2020. Mindful for sure!
Thanks, everyone!
IL: the texture was done with a wooden rolling-pin type of thing that had the pattern carved into it. For glaze colors, I dipped it in "Jeannie's Purple" and then in "Mockshino." There are lots of colors and then even more combinations of the various colors, so there is room for a lot of experimentation.
Lol Alan, the ultimate compliment!Quote:

Wow! What a beautiful collection of beautiful creations by all!!
I LOVE the paisley vase!! How did you do that? And the flowers are lovely in it.
Great work!!
Thanks, Catherine! I love the paisley effect too, and I have used it on a few things. It's super easy, a textured rolling pin, that you can use for hand-built pieces.
Absolutely beautiful, rr! I love the bowls. The white one has such a lovely shine to it.
