Ceramics class started up again. After two hours this is what I ended up with. I tried making an oxtail soup bowl with an attached section to put your ginger/shoyu sauce in. In the end, the bowl proved to be too soft and couldn't support the dipping portion. It kinda collapsed. I might need to go back to the drawing board or just move on to another project. We'll see.
When I got home I finished working on this watercolor greeting card to help make me feel better. It's a medium I'm more familiar with, but this too is also a work in progress.

You’ll think of something sturdy to make with the clay and the card is beautiful!

You can do it! And after you do, decorate it the way you do your cards with underglaze.
Maybe if you started with a big deep bowl (let me know because I have) and press the slab of clay in it. Then, after it sets up a little bit, you can add your ginger dish to the side of the bowl if it is inside the bowl. Take it out when it is soft leather hard. If you want the ginger side dish on the outside, you can attach it at that time with a lot of scratch and slip.
Or, you can do it on the outside of a bowl shape with plastic or newspaper so it will release. Let it dry a bit - not too much or the clay will crack as it shrinks while drying.
You can do it!!!
Looks like a day to play with the dough. Your painting is beautiful! Linda in Kansas

There is a perfect bowl on the supplies shelf in class, but I'm not good with slabs so I stayed away. But maybe it's time to try!
Thanks! I totally stole the idea from the internet. LOL.
Hope so too!
