Yellow Field
Frame size 28.5cm x 26cm. Ceramic Tile size 19.5cm × 17.5cm
I like the dominance of yellow in this piece which is made richer by the still visible underlayers of terracotta slip and blue engobe. The piece has a dramatic balance as the red focal point is pushed to the extreme corner of the composition. The black lines have been drawn on with a ceramic pastel that I make which leaves a chalk-like mark that is uncommon in ceramics.
Ceramic tile with incised lines, engobes, underglaze, glaze and oxides. Fired to 1140°C
