Description

I created my honeybee  series to celebrate the most important insect in our world. The Red Bee Swarm Bowl was thrown and trimmed on the potter’s wheel, then carefully dried to just the right consistency to create the chiseled  cocoa texture on the upper interior  section, then carefully planning the layout to create “the bee swarm”. Later in the drying stage, I carve freehand with a few specific tools . After the bowl is bisque fired, I painstakingly outline all of the bees hand-brush each color in 3 layers and fire it again to 2232 F.
