Artichoke

This is a slip-cast porcelain artichoke made from a 2-part plaster mold and glazed in one of my favorite glazes called “Spearmint”. I’ve been taking a mold-making class this fall and discovering all sorts of wonderful objects to replicate. I’ve mostly selected vegetables to start with – squashes, peppers and pumpkins, with a frog and a fish or two thrown in. I’ll post more photos as things come out of the kiln.
