Raku: Leaf Platter

This Leaf Platter is made with white stoneware clay, handformed on a humped plaster bat. The leaf impression on the surface of the platter is made with a real leaf, which fell at my feet during the Artistic License show in Costa Mesa, California. The back and rim are finished with a glossy copper green glaze. The surface of the platter is richly textured and finished with a dry iron wash. Because of the harshness of the raku process and the size of these platters, I have a survival rate of about 60%. This means that for every 3 finished platters I make, I've lost 2 in the process. It's a frustrating percentage but I love the finished product; so to me, it's worth it.
