Yellow Spiral Red-Eyed Tree Frog Bowl

This round earthenware bowl is wheel thrown, with a hand-built red eyed tree frog positioned on the rim in a playful pose. The bowl is bisque fired to cone 04 (about 1945 degrees Fahrenheit), resulting in a warm white surface for the artist to work on. Five layers of colored underglaze is brushed on. There is a spiral pattern painted over the warm yellow interior of the bowl. The exterior of the bowl is underglazed in 5 layers of deep ultramarine blue and the frog is underglazed in multiple colors with meticulous detail. Signed on the bottom. There is a gloss clear glaze over the entire bowl. Each piece is unique.
