I wanted to do some finish work on this piece before I posted it. Unfortunately life, or in my case, work, got in the way. I cast this in the Daniel Clayman class at Corning last month.
It turned out as I expected, actually better than I'd expected. This was a simple form that was inspired by my trip last year to Athens, Greece. I loved looking down at the amphitheatre from the Acropolis.
This obviously isn't a direct recreation of what I viewed. Rather this is my interpretation given the limitations of what I could cast and finish in a two day firing cycle. There is some flashing and minor imperfections that a little, make that a lot, of coldworking will fix.
Time to get busy...
