Red Grass Tsubo
A beetle landed inside, like the beetles that I occasionally found on my pillowcase in Shigaraki, Japan. A porcelain tsubo with its shape based on the forms I saw in the town museum. I drew the pattern after long grass from the hills surrounding the ceramic forest. The red crayon for it was made with a red stain I found at the Maruni Pottery supply shop. I consider this piece the masterpiece of my time in Japan.
