Ode to Fong

I was watching some you tube videos of Fong Choo and I was just amazed! He's so talanted.  Then a friend of mine suggested I look at him and, I don't know, I just felt it appropriate to make one in honor of him.  I think he only makes teapots... and makes a living at it.  Needless to say, an idol of mine ;).  I borrowed some techniques from him: the handle and the feet.  He also makes a lot of pots in this cone shape.  I added the swirl lines and my style of spout and the frillies around the edges.  Thank you to Fong Choo for being awesome and a great inspiration!  Fong glazes in great colors and I can only hope I don't mess this teapot up when I glaze it.  We shall see...
