Teapots inspired by Fong Choo

ABOUT Terrance

This teapot will be in a solo show of my teapots during May 2012 at a local boutique in Montreal. I will post more information next spring.

The teapot was inspired by Fong Choo, a noted potter working in the United States of America

Yixing Inspired.

ABOUT THIS PIECE

The teapot was thrown using cone six porcelainous stoneware. Real porcelain must be fired to a much higher temperature.

IThis teapot was also thrown following a clasic form, and the handle was the braided method. I was free with the brush and pigments.

The teapot measured approximately 4" by 6" high. so it is about the size on a man's fist. The surface decoration was by brush using pigments and oxides on the green-ware. The piece was then thrown and glazed with a crystal clear, transparent, glaze.
