a developmentally disabled 6yo could do better, still...  


that's my first ceramic piece to survive the kiln (the low-fire stuff hasn't been fired yet).

laugh. go ahead. it's still better than yours. (artists on my list are not allowed to comment to that. obviously i don't mean YOURS!)

...it's PRETTY.

It's just...what is it? A fossilized chaise longs? A diseased kidney. Whatever it is, it's FABULOUS! :)

/I do like it!

it won't actually hold water. it's an ASHTRAY

is it an inside out squashed medusa face?

the project was just to use a bunch of different kinds of coils. i didn't really care how it turned out. anyway, it's an ASHTRAY

MUCH better than mine. I have a bunch of ones I made in 5th grade sitting around. Let is say that the only image I was interested in as an artist was a mohawked dude on a skateboard, and I did not stray from that theme.

all of the great artists spend their lives exploring one theme...

did you make it on a wheel?
[info]dandelionwhine on November 12th, 2007 08:55 pm (UTC)
no. so far all i've made on the wheel is a big lump of clay...

Ooh, coils!

I like it. And no, I'm not joking.

My college roommate was a potter. I tried taking a pottery class while she tried taking painting. It was a disaster for both of us. So we swapped art materials.

The mysteries of ceramics will forever elude me. You are brave.

my mom was a ceramist. the idea was to get a little closer to her by exploring her medium. i think it's working. also i just wanted something i could leave my job for for an hour or so and not be bothered (my lunches are contiually interrupted with inane questions). this class is in the building and is proving very therapeutic!
