Over-glaze painting

Yesterday, I forgot to include a photo of this little cup from the last firing. Actually, it was really a test piece, to see how one of my black slips would look over the matte ochre ash glaze. I rather like the way the brushwork has merged with the glaze layer so it doesn't look too harsh.


Next time, I'll try a blue slip over this yellow glaze, that could be interesting too!

      Thank you, Midori, it was painted very quickly, without thinking. :)

      I often find the without-thinking method works very well. Please do more. I like to see more of this. But then you might become conscious and stop without-thinking? : D
