Underglaze Demo - Professor Yangbing


Professor Yangbig brought in her own pot to decorate with blue cobalt underglaze. The piece was already sprayed once with a clear glaze and she painted over with cobalt. Her final design looked more contemporary than the traditional Chinese landscapes and animals that were being painted on vases at the big vase factory. Apparently her work sells for big bucks because she bought 6 apartments and knocked down the walls to create one massive luxury pad for herself and her husband, or so I hear.

Professor Yangbing painted an abstract lotus flower onto the pot. The end result was really beautiful and impressive but I wasn’t too interested in sitting and watching her paint for an hour. After she was finished, each of us got to decorate a small pot with cobalt.
