Slip-trailing
Using a technique called "itchin," in which colored slip (liquid clay mixed with pigment) is squeezed from a dropper to create raised lines and dots, I decorate unglazed pottery. My work is bright, light, and contemporary.

A small dish that leaves the texture of the base clay exposed, with no glaze applied, so that the lines drawn using the "itchin" slip-trailing technique appear more three-dimensional. Of course, the surface has been treated to prevent staining. The intricate work is so fine you would hardly believe it was done by hand. Feel free to use it not only for food, but also as a tray.
