Nicole Pappas Ceramics

I really like how fun and bright this piece is. On some of the yellow and blue could, the underglaze cracked and ran a little because the clear coat didn't melt well with the yellow and the green. So next time I will remember to pay attention to this to make sure I can use the right glazes that go well with the clear. also I would trim the bottom some more because the piece is quite heavy.

You can't see, but the foot of this bowl cracked because it was too thin so next time I know to make the bottom thicker so that I can prevent that, also, next time I might put some iron oxide on it to make the lines pop more. Although, I really like how the glaze melted into the lines with a cool splotchy effect. I think this is a good piece that I could actually use for food and such.

 Overall, I'm really happy with how this bowl turned out because the glaze ended up being really pretty and the pattern I made with the stamps took the glaze really well and turned out really cool. If i were to change something about the bowl, I would have made the inside of it more smooth with no bumps while it was still on the wheel with a rib. I would have also made sure I trimmed the bowl a bit more even because it turned out a bit wobbly.
