This is my brown clay mug with a large pulled handle. It was glazed by adding sand glaze detail to the groves by covering and scrubbing, and then dipping into clear glaze. With this project, I learned more about mixing clay types during throwing, and that to get the best color variation you need to mix in a white clay along with the brown. The form and space of the cup, defined by its silhouette and the handle, create a nice sense of balance and harmony. When viewing this mug, one might find themselves reminded of the great rocky spectacles of the earth: the Grand Canyon, the Rocky Mountains, and so on.
