clay: sgraffito #3, #4, #5

My tinned fish obsession has transferred into painting black underglaze into ceramic forms built from Styrofoam containers and then scratching away the coating to reveal the white Bmix underneath.

Sgraffito #2, inspired by Trader Joe's Calamari Pieces in Olive Oil.

Sgraffito #3, because sardines, especially Trader Joe's Lightly Smoked Sardines in Olive Oil, are tasty, forked into and eaten straight out of the can.

And with Sgraffito #5, I just wanted to try to free hand draw coral next to a swimming Pacific rockfish.

Last Sunday after a frustrating couple hours of throwing, I resumed scratching pomegranates. My backgrounds have been black but it's time I think to start scratching away around the figures.
