Totem pole top piece in progress! This has been a personal project of mine ongoing for some time but finally the top piece has been made and had its bisque firing. Here I’ve used a variety of handmade coloured washes using specialist ceramic materials and techniques to achieve a rustic look.

Scroll to see the colour progressing

P.s. Happy Friday!!!

What a fantastic project, Katherine! The rustic look you've achieved with those handmade coloured washes is really striking — it's fascinating to see the colour develop as you scroll through. Can't wait to see the finished totem pole! Happy Friday! 🎨
