Lidded Form
The Lidded Form project was really fun, I enjoyed coming up with a unique design to apply to the hump molds. Instead of adding handles I was able to add the coils around as well as in the top. The most difficult part was to pick out a good texture that would go well with the type of mold I chose. Also I am working on the Tile project, first I have to pick out my design and then start decorating the tiles. When glazing the small box I plant to first wax the bottom, then start with the inside and fill the inside to about half way with the color I chose and then swirl it around for the glaze to get to all the inside parts. Then I will continue with the outside and glaze the outside parts. After while the small box is drying, I will glaze the top piece by it self, but at the same time making sure the sides of the top are waxed as well as the opening of the top of the small box for the two pieces to fit well together. For the tiles I will first paint the design I choose, and then move to glazing each tile individually to perhaps use different colors per tile. Both of the project enhanced my abilities to use different textures and also be able to use the texture to express emotions, the projects provided a unique experience and were fun to work with.
