I chose to make my  project this way so that the bowl would perfectly fit inside of my left hand while still being comfortable. I chose the color after seeing the examples I thought it looked spacey and interesting. Using clay I used by thumbs to make a cup shape then using a snake of clay I attached a bottom to the cup. I glazed using a special glaze so that it could be burnt and fired creating a unique color and feel to the cup. The goal of the project was to make a unique cool raku fired bowl which I  believe I achieved in this bowl. This piece helped increase my clay knowledge and skill which will be useful for a lot of later projects.

This bowl was crafted from the ground up using clay and slip. I learned to make even structures with clay as well as how to indent those boxes to make impressive designs. I used Popsicle sticks to impress designs into the box's side and top as well as a knife. The bowl ended up how I wanted but the colors didn't end up how I expected. I'm gonna gift this bowl to my grandma so I hope she enjoys it. I used two different arches on the sides to make it not slide and the sides will fit more cleaning.
