greece as fallen..

I was super happy about the project i've been making. I have one vase pretty much done, with the design carved in, and i LOVE it. It's one of my favorites so far. As for my second...I made which was my favorite, a super big vase..but i was very stupid and it completely collapsed. I was about to fire the vase collapsed, but decided to start another. I hope to have my projects ready on the deadline :/ ....we'll see.

im so so soooo happy for amy and her baby blake! i cant wait to go visit her, anyone down?

umm....

For the past like four class periods i have done NOTHING, except stare at my vase and get frustrated. I really need to start working and getting two projects done before the end of the month. I have two that I'm excited to make, I hope they turn out better and better. I need to glaze my vases before i fire them this time and hopefully the painting process wont be such a struggle anymore. I have three vases that i am pit firing and I'm excited to see how they turn out. Another vase i have I am in the midst of painting and I'm nervous to see how it goes. At this point I am just practicing and need to not take it so seriously until i really figure out what i want to do.

I loooved making amy cry today when we gave her her gift..it was sooo cute :)    im so glad she liked it! im going to miss her tons and tons and tons.
good thing my class will help me :) 

for my next piece i want to make a super large and short bowl like vase with a tiny whole at the top.

im backkk

Coming back today and being really tired from the time change from maui was super hard. I'm nervous for Amy to leave because I won't have anyone to talk to when I freak out, but our new teacher seems cool. I'm excited to see how things will go and if anything will change. I started painting my first vase and I have no idea what I'm doing, I need to do a lot of experimenting. I'm almost thinking about changing the painting part because I can't paint, but I don't want to give up so we will see how it goes...Being in Maui was super fun, I went to Hana, which is this crazy road with water falls and a big hike. Along the hike I wanted to make sooo many nature sculptures, there was a lot of cool nature that we don't have and it would have been fun to see what I made.
