Raku work

This low bowl is built around the contrast between the pink-red crackle glaze and the darker centre created through the raku firing. The small owl detail sits close to the rim rather than dominating the piece. I like the way the firing has changed the surface, particularly where the colour gives way to the darker smoke marks.
