When I first returned to pottery in 2023 I was amazingly better than when I left, but many pieces ended using significantly less clay than I put on the wheel. As an engineer, I enjoy the process of attempting to fix pieces almost as much as the original making. One of those pieces ended up as a wine bottle holder and I thought it would be fun to play with underglazes -- possibly to disguise any wine drips that would end up in the piece?

In any case, I was pretty immediately hooked on the outcome and since then have heavily played with different colors and applications of underglaze and colored slips. I find that I often see a piece and think that it needs a colorful set of smiles on it. :)
