Two plates that I have thrown on the wheel. The plate in the first image has a diameter of 6 inches and is 1 inch tall, and the plate in the second image has a diameter of 7 inches and is also 1 inch tall. Both plates feel smooth and glassy to the touch and were glazed using black and Sydney blue. For this project, I learned how to throw a plate on a potter's wheel. I used very differing colors to create a sense of contrast via the opaque black and the slightly transparent blue. This creates a sense of interest.
