Coloured Work
A type of finishing I have applied mainly to my turned bowls and hollow forms since 1998.
The turned bowls and hollow form are scrubbed, coloured and limed (Sometimes the colouring is produced through a chemical process - but the results are less vibrant)
This type of finish on my work is popular with ceramic, stone sculpture collectors as it is ideal for among a collection of textured work or studio ceramics!
