IM DONE IM DONE IM DONE!!!!

TOMORROW IS THE SHOWCASE AND I CANT WAIT! I HAVE 14 PIECES, TWO OF WHICH ARE HORRIBLE SO I'M REALLY REALLY HAPPY AND PROUD OF MYSELF. WHITNEY PUT ONE OF MY BLUE COIL VASES IN THE OPA SHOW AND IM REALLY PROUD ABOUT THAT TOO. IM EXCITED TO GO ON THE FIELD TRIP AND SEE EVERYTHING. AFTER THIS I'LL HAVE A LIFE AGAIN; WHICH IS AMAZING. AND IM WRITING IN ALL CAPS BECAUSE EVERYTHING IS SO GREAT IN ART RIGHT NOW! I HOPE THE SHOW GOES WELL AND MAYBE I'LL SELL SOMETHING :)

these are most all my pieces. and some of jacks are in there too. :) :)

re-building..FML

So last time i blogged i thought i was so close to being done and i was thrilled. Then i decided i hated two of my projects so much, and they were cracked, so i'm rebuilding three! i'm trying to build these three in a matter of 2 and half days..which with coils, is pretty much impossible. They quite possibly are some of the worst i've made but by this point its the deadline i have to worry about. Once all this bs is over i want to start enjoying art and making fun stuff :)

im almost done!

I am really worried about how much I still have to do since the showcase is coming up so quickly;  however I'm getting really close! I slipped and painted on a design, it took all four periods to do and lunch...it was a long day to say the least. I love my vase though, and it seems a ton of people like the design so I'm happy. I need to finish handles on my last vase, slip and design it, then I will be done building! I need to glaze two vases and barrel fire three. Once everything is fired and done, I can't wait, I'm going to be so happy!

:)

this week has been really nice but nothing really has been going on. I am almost finished with two amphoras then all i have to do is glaze. I have A TON of pieces to glaze though, im nervous because i don't have a lot of time but i think everything will turn out great. The janitor yelled at some art students and max and i yesterday, he scares me. however, i'm still going to stay in after school :)    I'm really excited for the field trip as well. I plan on coming in on friday, saturday and sunday to work on my things.

palm springs.

I'm leaving two vases while i leave for palm springs till monday night. I really hope they do not dry up so i can finish them when i get back. With those two pieces, all i have to do is finish some glazing and my portfolio will be done! I have to use some shitty pieces I don't like, but whatever, I guess it will show my progress or something. Wish my luck -_-

extra cred

Today I made some jewelry with Lexie! I made two pairs of earings, a pendent for a necklace and a ring. I really hope at least three of the things count for my breadth. With the jewelry my breadth section is done! I am finishing carving my green vase today and finished a coil vase yesterday. Now if I can make two amphoras by the end of break I will almost have my concentration done! I hope to make two and another one or two in the beginning of April.

spring break=amphoras!

I've decided that over spring break I'm going to try and build two to three amphoras.I have started another coil vase, with the coils out, and i hope it turns out great. I'm also going to make three pieces of jewelery to finish my breadth section. I painted a vase green which so far I'm not too sure how I like it. My blue vase turned out really cool, however I wish that the blue was darker. My short, circle vase turned out amazing with the glaze; I'm super happy about that. I hope that my portfolio comes together in April and my concentration all ties together!
