This is an extra credit cup thrown in porcelain that I made for my kickboxing instructor, Frankie (aka the Battlegoat). It is uniform in shape and has a handle attached to one side. I glazed it in white and then wiped off the glaze in spots, covering those places and around the letters in detail black. To make this cup, I used a new technique for pulling the handle. Instead of making a flat handle, I pulled it in a circular motion to make it round and nicer to hold on to. Value and texture are two characteristics of the cup, as the white and black are two different ends of a "value scale" and the throwing lines can be seen and felt through the glaze. Due to the fact that it is white and black, it provides an allusion to cows when a person looks at it.
