Coils....

 

I have one coil vase almost half way done and another I just started the other day. The clay has to stiffen before I can keep building so I started two at the same time and hopefully next week I will start my third vase. I have one coil vase done from last year that I plan to put in my Portfolio so my other three projects that are due (for me) by December 15ish will be two more coil vases and a breath piece.

greek vases

I've decided on my concentration..greek vases! the Greeks are notorious for their vases and there is a lot to know about them. In each vase I want show the history of the culture, but with a twist of modern time that also relates to myself. In greek vases there are events and scenes shown so i hope to do something about the same but my own events. I have a ton to do and im not that excited, but I love how everything is coming together.

concentrations!!!!

I'm feeling really good about my concentration ideas, but im still not too sure. I think im going to go with vases portraying cultures. I want to be able to throw and hand build. I also want to take some classes so i can make dresses and jewelry because im really interested in it but i dont have enough experience to make it a concentration. I do not want to do four projects in two months though, thats nuts i dont know what im going to to do!

pumpkins!

carving pumpkins after school today was super fun! I didn't win any prizes, but a lot of the pumpkins were some of the best ive ever seen.

My family project and found object project are pretty much done. It really sucks we don't have the opportunity to come in at any time after school anymore; i never realized how much it helped until now so i'll just have to go in during my late arrivals.

im stuck!

I'm almost done with my family project, still more cleaning up to do with it, but so far i think ive decided on what i want the blocks to build up like. Im really stuck on my found objects project though. i have my doll head and i added some paper; so far i think it looks really cool but we will see.

almost done :))

My family project is almost done, and so far im really excited about it. I need to clean up my blocks or cubes and i hope that they turn out as perfect as i expect.

I have a picture of my family.My mom, dad, sister Molly and brothers Ryan and Cory. We are all extremely different but creepily close.

Family

For my family project I am putting six different sized blocks or cubes together. Six represents my family of six people and they are put in an order that I think really fits each person. So far I've made three of them and I cant wait to see how it turns out, I'm really excited!

 I also added a picture of my pill bottle cap dress :)
