This sculpture was quite a learning experience that I was happy to have. We've had three sculptures and model projects in this second school term but I have only been able to complete this one in time. While it may not be all I'd hoped for, I am very proud of it. With every sculpture, I got closer and closer to finishing on time but I never quite could. I feel overall very satisfied with this piece.
The process was very difficult. I realized I had to cut my block of material in half to make it work and shaping the bowl was very difficult. I noticed I hadn't carved the stripes correctly when I was painting as I was supposed to carve them in a circular or spiral pattern on the outside. Overall, I was grateful for the learning experience and will use it for future pieces.
