The Process
Custom made pair of earrings for LAANE's 2021 Women for a New Los Angeles: the dawn is hers, virtual event, an event that celebrates women’s leadership.
To achieve the watercolor effect, I start off with a conditioned white base. The white base helps highlight the purple, green, and blue colors that are hand-painted on top. Once dry, we lay a very thin piece of translucent clay on top of the painted white base to protect the paint. The slab is inserted into a Lucy Clay machine to produce a paper thin sheet of clay, that is then ripped into small pieces and placed on a new base to make the final slab. Shapes are cut out from the final slab using my collection of shape cutters.
Once baked, each piece is sanded, hand drilled, assembled, photographed and packaged by me. To learn more about the making of each product, please visit my instagram page: @virauful.
