Ceramics Project

  For my Ceramics Project, I made a square bowl out of clay. My bowl is 3 in. tall and 4.5 in. wide on all four sides. The design element that was most stressed during the construction of my project was form. The techniques I used were slabs, pinching, modeling, and slumping. The function of my bowl is to hold food and/or miscellaneous items. I created my design by drawing what I wanted on a piece of paper then shaping it with clay. By doing this project, I learned that it's very important to smooth your edges and that I should go more slowly with some of my artwork. If I were to repeat this project, I would make sure that I smoothed the edges more thoroughly and I would paint my red clay on more carefully.
