Pottery by Osa

It takes me at least a couple of hours to decorate a pot this size. I brush three layers of terra sigillata into each section, alternating the different types of clay in a rhythmic symmetry. Then I’ll bisque fire the pot, apply glaze and fire one last time. I haven’t made as much progress this week as I would have liked so I may end up working a bit this weekend, which is something I try to avoid. Have a good weekend, everyone.

Pottery by Osa

I’m ending the week on one of my favorite parts of the process—selecting coordinating hues of glaze and terra sigillata to paint my pots. I started working this way about a year ago. After collecting clay samples for many years, I finally began using them to decorate my pottery. It has added so much to my work in terms of cultural expression and connection to the Earth.

A square photo of a clay sample next to a fired test tile. The clay is a dark orange-tan color and the tile is dark orange-brown with a soft sheen. Both objects lay on a gray concrete floor. The clay was collected from the land around Arrowmont School of Crafts in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, in the Smoky Mountains. It’s a place I’ve been able to travel to three times so far and holds positive memories for me. I’ve attended workshops there and also taught there myself.
The image features a collection of colorful ceramic test tiles with decorative patterns, placed in front of jars labeled with different place names that correspond with where the clay inside was collected. A bone dry, unfired decorative pitcher is on the right, and various pottery pieces are visible in the background. The objects sit on a work table within the context of an apparently active pottery studio. Various pieces of pottery and kilns can be seen in the background.

Okay, I'm calling the background on this one finished. Because I can keep fiddling with it forever, but I've run out of meaningful ways to actually improve it at the moment.

Time to draw the dragons next.

Original Space Fox 2 illustration to show how much different this remake is. I hope it'll be actually better and not just different.

Space Fox explores planet Oo. There is a green sky and purple clouds and purple plants and blue water. Space Fox is still just a sketch, as are the dragons flying alongside her.
Original Space Fox 2 digital painting. It's very rough around the edges and the dragons especially look unfinished. Anyway, Space Fox flies over the forests of Oo.

Hey, I've been busy working on two illustrations for lufthunger plup #4 “Des Autres lointains”.

Here's the first, for the short story “Juniconde, ou la promesse d'un meurtre atomique” by Marc Éliam
My reaction : “What? I'm supposed to illustrate a universe where atomic energy meets the medieval ages of fortified castles and knights? Hell yeah! ”

The book is available via his Ulule campaign :

fr.ulule.com/un-petit-pas-pour

English : Drawing of a knight in armor, without helmet, seated on a medieval throne adorned with multiple wires and electronic devices. He holds a box with a luminous symbol representing an eye. On the right, an angelic female figure flies in an aerial pose. A huge armillary sphere fills the background. Français : Dessin d’un chevalier en armure, sans casque, assis sur un trône médiéval agrémenté de multiples fils et dispositifs électroniques. Il tient sur lui une boîte comportant un symbole lumineux représentant un œil. Sur la droite, une figure féminine angélique vole dans une posture aérienne. Une immense sphère armillaire habille l'arrière-plan de la scène.
English: Description similar to the previous design, but without the double frame. Français : Description similaires au précédent dessin, mais sans le double cadre.
English: Pencil sketch of previous drawing. Français : Crayonné du précédent dessin.
English: Research sketch of previous drawing. Français : Croquis de recherche du précédent dessin.
