Here is a picture of what I am trying to finish up from the retreat. It is a vase, about 10 inches tall. I'm really liking how the whole is an organic shape instead of just a circle. No idea how to glaze this yet so hit me up if you have ideas.
I'm starting sketches on a sculpture made of denim. I saw this picure of a birdhouse and I found it really inspiring. Jeans share so much about who a person is and every pair has a story. I'm keeping the sketches incognito at the moment, but this is still a cool pic.
Well that's all folks. Gingerbread cookies in class tomorrow.

HAYY GIRL. As far as the vase goes, I love the organic shape of it and how seamless it is. It also seems like you kind of incorporated ideas from some of goldsworthy's artwork because the hole reminds me of some of his stuff. love eet.
ReplyDeleteDon't glaze it. Low fire it.
ReplyDeleteSo I really suck at clay stuff. And I am sort of an idiot when it comes to that stuff. So.... why low fire it? What does that do?
ReplyDeleteLook through the books Smoke Firing and Alternative Firing Methods. Also ask Jayla, she has some nice low fired stuff.
