Thors comment:
"This plant-themed pot was supposed to be red. But since glaze is alchemy, not everything always turns out as planned. So I refired it with a purple glaze over the old one, which highlighted the sculpted "leaves" on the corners very nicely."

THOR ABOUT THE EDITION - Snow in May
"When I started working on this edition, I planned a raven theme for it. But since spring came early, and the flowers with it, a plant theme crept in with leaves and flowers. When it was time to start glazing Sweden was hit by a massive snowfall - which is very unusual in May, and I was thrown back into winter as the chlorophyllous grass and the brittle flowers wilted and died. That's why you might find this edition a bit sprawling at first glance with black, white and bright colours mixed together.
Carina Jern and I have also expanded our collaboration with three pieces under the name "UTBY" (the name of our village and our kiln). These pots will be marked UTBY at the release."
