My idea for this was to make a salt bowl. My idea evolved because I wanted something that my family and I could actually use.  My process of this was I first rounded out my base and smoothed the surface. Next I added a clay ring to the bottom of the bowl. Then I had it fired and then painted it.  For the dots I used a smaller paint brush. The most difficult part of this was trying to get it smooth. If I were to start over i would make the sides thinner. This salt jar is more on the abstract side I would say. This is unique to my style becuase i like simple things like this. I like the blue and white and how its super small.
