Testing Gradients

Music in the Studio

  • Artist: Not identified.
  • Title: No title.
  • Genre: No genre.
  • Listen: No source.

I primarily queue music from soundcloud.com because that's what I mostly listen to. Every now and then, I will add in music from Apple Music.

I wanted to try a red to white gradient with a little cup I made. I wanted to achive a pink color in the gradient, and while I know it’s possible, when mixing colors, I just wasn’t sure how it would turn out with glazes. I really liked how it turned out so I tested the same technique on a bowl that has a small crack on the bottom. I can only use it to hold dry stuff, but it really is just a test. We’ll see how it turns out.
