Blog #1: Incising

According to Ceramic Dictionary, incising refers to engraving a design by cutting or scraping into the clay surface at any stage of drying.  I chose this incised pot because of how intricate and detailed it is.  It shows us that there is a wide range of designs that we can all choose from; not just lines and circles.  I would like to try and attempt to incise flowers on my pinch pot, however I feel like that is for more experienced potters.  It has been quite the experience making our pinch pots thus far, so I am very interested to see how they all turn out!
