In this series of plates, I explored the relationship between color and texture by treating each piece as an opportunity to experiment. Using different rib tools, I tested how variations in surface treatment could create distinct visual effects across similar forms. Rather than repeating one successful approach, I deliberately introduced variation, allowing each plate to become a study in material, mark-making, and surface. The series reflects my interest in how small changes in technique can produce different results, and how working across multiple iterations can reveal possibilities that a single finished piece might not.
