Made two mugs and carved designs into them for my hand and wheel project. Glazed some things that I needed to glaze. I was gone on Thursday for senior tea and on Friday for my audition for CBC's vocal program!
 
I made my teapot (multi-wheel) this week! SO COOL! I was really proud that it worked on the first try, I was really nervous.
 
This week I made my lidded project. I actually made it twice-- the first time the lid cracked and the bott
 
I made three bowls this week... One of them cracked before it made it to the bisque, two of them are in the bisque now
 
Back from spring break! Kind of. I was only in class for 2 days and then I headed of on our choir tour 2013! I'm in Pasco, singing my face off! So, unfortunately an uneventful week for ceramics... but a very eventful week for art in my life! Here's a picture of me and my choir singing in the art gallery at the choir competition.

Good week! Got a lot of projects out of the kiln (putting them up on my grading blog after this) and threw a cylinder which I then altered into an oval! It was cool to use a skill I found on the internet and put it to use myself. Mrs. H wants me to make a tutorial and put it up on how to alter a cylinder into an oval, pictured here. So I will do that probably next week or the week after that! I also entered three projects into the art show this week. I chose my plate, my candle holders and a firm slab puzzle box I made last semester.

 
Good week! My plate came out of the kiln, my set of three candle holders got glazed and fired, I threw a plate with vashon red and carved/bisqued some of the things I had been throwing with red. Right now the stuff I'm throwing with red is just mostly staying basic, I only carved the mug. I just wanna kinda let the red be red for now, I'm just excited to be working with a new clay! I'm going to think up some new designs and carve more stuff next week hopefully. Got some red in the bisque, some drying, and some waiting to go into the glaze. Lots of things! Yay!

Another great week! Started throwing with red this week- made a bowl and a cup with that, it was cool working with another type of clay! I also carved designs into the three bowls that I made last week, and those are drying. Put my candle holders in the bisque, getting ready for another successful week!

 
Successful week this week! Threw a plate that I really like, kept working on my set of three (which are almost ready to be bisqued, I just have to finish sanding off the edges), carved a design into my plate and then I threw three bowls after school today, which I will foot on monday!
 
My plate came out of the bisque... it's pretty bad. I started my set of three-- I'm making tea light candle holders! Helped the newbs a lot with their cylinders. Hooray for spreading the ceramics!
