This is another Raku piece (see below: Raku Leaf). I am rather proud of this piece because I don't use a wheel due to my bad shoulder. This piece was entirely coiled, and then flattened, which is pretty much the way it was done waaay back when. For that reason I decided to Raku it and give it an esoteric look.
When I was fifteen my dad thought it would be fun to drive from upstate NY to Guatemala. Every time I look at this pot I think of driving through Mexican jungles in a Grand Prix and exploring the ruins of Oaxaca on my birthday.
