This is my cup with a pulled handle. I have only made one of these. I created this cup by using the wheel and used a triangular shape piece of clay and the hard plaster table to throw it to a handle shape. This is one of my favorite pieces of artwork, I call it my “teacup". It has about three different colors of glaze that i used but it looks like four colors because the yellow and blue glaze melted together in the glaze kiln causing the colors to mix, creating a green color. My favorite art and design elements I included in this project was the very simple shape of the cup and handle itself but with very good colors that emphasis the cups great shape but with the colors that contrast nicely but also give the project a good balance.
This is my first vase i made using the wheel. It is circular, expect its rim is wavy. The vase's rim gives the project a unique shape by giving emphasis to the rim. The one color of dark brown glaze, give the vase balance. The one dark color and the shape of the vase contrast each other giving texture to the rim but by still keeping its shape and colors simple to give the project a good value. The vase has a very small shape that gives it a small personal feel, but is to small to hold any flowers.
This is my third bowl, it was created by using the wheel. It is circular, but small. The width of the bowl is about 3 and 3/4 inches wide and the heigh of the bowl is about 2 1/4 inches tall. It has about four different color of glaze. The black glaze emphasizes the appearance of the bowl and evens the bowls appearance with the rest of the colors. This is a bowl created by using the wheel. The bowl is circular. It has about three different colors of glaze on it. On the side with the yellow glaze, the glaze had crawled. The crawled glaze feels smooth, bumpy and at the same time rough. The crawled galze empathized the texture of the bowl. The parts of the bowl were it did not crawl, is smooth. The bowl is about 4 1/2 inches wide and about 2 inches tall. I can not wait to see how putting a coat of clear glaze on it changes its texture and appearance. This is my first bowl completed using the wheel. It is circular with about five different colors of glaze. The texture of the sides are smooth but the rim is a little rough. The red glazing color I used on the rim emphasizes the rim and the side with the green and blue glaze gives the bowl some visual contrast. The shape of the bowl can be improved, but this was my first bowl and I have learned better techniques to improve its shape. My bowls is about 3 1/2 inches wide and about 1 1/2 inches tall. It is small but fits perfectly in my hands, it gives it a personal feel being so small. |
