I am in my 5th year of college, graduating this semester (yes!!) with a degree in fine art, and am in the midst of taking a Ceramics I class.It's traumatizing.
??????????????????????
clay? bats? engobe?
??????????????????????
??????????????????????
??????????????????????
I'm used to indesign, curves and f-stops.
talk about going back to square one.
needing some form of familiarity, i've been photographing
my clay pots as they progress----------------------------------
this is pre-firing
/////////////////////////all the foreigntools!
my first child!
so odd, i love it.
this next one is a response to a drawing i did a few years ago, which you can read about here if you'd like. drawing was also a fear-inducer for me.... ahh! doing things with Not the computer! scary, but eventually, fun...!
++ at this very moment,
i have 5 cylinders in the kiln that i threw on the WHEEL.
get ready for those beauties.
very screwed up beauties,
and actually, not completely cylindrical
but hey
its ceramics 1.
------------ go try something new!
((((pizza w/ sprinkles? drawing? etc.))))

ceramics is hard, i hear you on that one. stay away from the nasty rough brownish red clay on the wheel, if you can help it. my hands took the heat from that little jaunt.
