This is my raku bowl, I had a lot of fun making this bowl. I tried making it as even as possible. The base is not visible in this picture but I'm most happy with how it turned out. For the colors I had intended it to be a mix of blue and white. it ended up turning green for some reason but I think it still turned out good. Overall I'm pretty happy with the finished product.
This is my clay plate, this particular project was a pain for me. I started by sculpting the plate, then added the three layers of paint and began sculpting. The next day I came in it had a large crack in it running all the way down the plate. I had to start over which really irritated me. After I got back to where I was I finished carving the design and put the layer of clear glaze on it. I'm happy with how it turned out but not with the process.Â
This is my impressive box this project made me go though a roller coaster of emotions. I was pretty happy when I first started out it was looking good. But as I continued making the box it became deformed, making it unsymmetrical. This caused me to lose motivation to make it look good. When we deciding on the impressions we wanted to make I made a really bad one and alomst fired it. Then I thought to myself that I could do better and made the current design. Once it came out of the kiln we glazed them and fired the boxes on last time. Im pretty happy with how it turned out.
This project we were supposed to use are initials to make a logo and put some of our likes on it. I started by getting the design I wanted and then traced it onto some Styrofoam. I then cut out the design twice for the front and back. We then used very thin cardboard and tape to fill in the gaps on the sides. After I had attached both pieces together I used paper towels and glue to get a smooth layer over the whole logo. Once it had dried I painted it and then added the designs I wanted. For the P I painted it red with a skull since I like How to train your dragon. then words under it are from the movie and it says night fury. On the A I put Lego's since it because I used to make things all the time. Wild Kratts was one of my favorit shows growing up. Along the side of the A I put a prehistoric marine reptile called a Plesiosaurus since I enjoy learning about Pre-history.
