I chose to make my  project this way so that the bowl would perfectly fit inside of my left hand while still being comfortable. I chose the color after seeing the examples I thought it looked spacey and interesting. Using clay I used by thumbs to make a cup shape then using a snake of clay I attached a bottom to the cup. I glazed using a special glaze so that it could be burnt and fired creating a unique color and feel to the cup. The goal of the project was to make a unique cool raku fired bowl which I  believe I achieved in this bowl. This piece helped increase my clay knowledge and skill which will be useful for a lot of later projects.
