Many artists glaze projects to show off a certain shape. This is a 8 1/2" by 8" wheel altered vase. It is short and wide. It has a wide belly, giving it a sphere shape. The lip does not flare out. The vase has been altered by squishing in the sides. This turns the sphere into a more square shape on the body of the project. The vase was dipped, first, in clear. Then, on each altered side, it was quickly dipped in turquoise to create the circles on each side. The glaze emphasizes the part of the project that has been altered to enhance the new shape.
