So lately I have been throwing a lot of teabowls. I love making them but I am trying to find one that I really like to make, then I want to make a bunch of them. I have been searching the internet trying to find ideas. I'm really drawn to the rounded forms that are smooth with bulges or indents that keep a smooth feel to the pot. I also experimented over the summer using shells to alter some plates and bowls I made and I think that is what i want to try next with my teabowls.
These porcelain teabowls are made by David Holden and fired in an anagama kiln. I really like the one on the right with all the ash. I want to make some teabowls the same shape as these but then give them some sort of subtle alteration.

Shocking Art

I also had another idea about beauty and body image in the media and how it places pressure on women. For this I was thinking of have a head and torso of a girl who is reading a celebrity magazine and make up, hair dye, diet pills, etc. are coming out of it and drowning her.
