Last Day of the Semester!!

Finally the first semester has ended. I feel that this first semester of AP I have accomplished a lot of work that I can use in my portfolio. I now need to start worrying about how to glaze my pieces, especially the large ones, and how the glaze will pull them all together to form a concentration.

This weekend is the pit firing! I hope it goes well and all of the pieces turn out good!

End of Semester

So the semester is coming to a close and not much is going on right now. Just finished a vase but its been moved to the kiln, thus I did not get a photo of it. Not sure if we even have to do a blog this week but if we do here it is!

Bloggggg

Been working on a circular vase, formed from a doughnut, foot, and vase top. Not much else happening right now except AMY IS LEAVING!!!

Have a quick birth Amy :)

January Work

I am starting to think about glazes this month and how I want to glaze my concentration. I am thinking of doing a tribal theme on all of my pots and keeping it simple with neutral colors and bare clay on most of the pots. I like this glaze job on this pot:

Not much this week, just finished another tall vase.

1 Week Left

This week I did not really do too much throwing in the studio. I have the first half to another "tall" vase done but thats about it. I have been going through and photo editing some photos in photoshop as well.

Lately I have been throwing away. I made another "large" (as tall as the kiln can hold) vase and continued making tiny vases until I had 12.

So far things are backing up for glazing so that will have to come soon, as I have 5 projects waiting to be fired as well as a large plate.

Here is a photo of all three of the tall ones, besides the one that broke so far in the loft.
