Works in Progress

I'm in three studio classes this semester. Figure Drawing, Vessel Construction, and Intermediate/Advanced Throwing. My first day of Vessel Construction we were free to play with the clay in any way we wanted. I made a pillar with various body parts attached.

We mooshed it all up and recycled the works at the end of class. It was a great first day. This was also my first attempt at modeling... anything. My first time creating ear and nose sculptures.

I just had a few cups and bowls put into the kiln in my Throwing class. I love to write silly words and positive messages into my works. I love words.

My Figure Drawing instructor is not shy to tell you exactly how he feels about your work. Even though it intimidates me to a degree, it also pushes me to work a lot harder and look with a much more critical eye. I know I'm going to improve dramatically by the end of this semester.
