This is an extra credit vase thrown in vashon white. The radius is fairly equal 7/8 of the way up the project. In the last eighth of the project, it drastically shrinks and then flares to create the neck and lip of the vase. In the side of the vase is carved a series of alternating hearts and two's. I glazed the inside in black scrap, the outside in turquoise matte, the hearts in detail red, and the two's in detail black. I had to learn how to choke in such a way that I could drastically change the radius of the vase without destroying it while I was throwing, which was to slowly, but with lots of pressure, choke the project. This vase has contrast and texture, as the calmness of the green and the brightness of the red contrast and the turquoise matte is not evenly spread, allowing the texture to change between rough and smooth. With these characteristics, the vase gives off a feeling that reminds me of a candy shop or hand-made goods store.
