Colored Clay Strips Strategically Rolled Together to Reveal Stunning Designs When Sliced Crosswise

Clay artist Dean McRaine of Lightwave Pottery creates absolutely beautiful, psychedelic millefiori ceramic art. McRaine achieves this gorgeous effect by strategically rolling together different colors of clay in hidden patterns. Similar to the scary-looking animae bread we previously posted, the actual desired design is revealed when the roll of clay is sliced crosswise.

Here are several of McRaine’s completed pieces.
