Sculpture final

• Has your definition of art clanged since from the beginning of this class?  Yes I feel like art is a class to actually grow and have fun in.

• Regardless of whether a project was successful or not, describe the one where you learned, grew, or developed the most from?  Please explain. After a bad one I feel like i saw my mistakes and I learned from them so most likely the next time is so better

•  Choose a place or artwork where the subject matter reflects you as an artist.  One that you have a personal connection to.  Please explain. The cardboard peice it was  a small peice no one remembered and I had a lot of carboard pieces in art1! And I had so much fun with them.

•  Regardless of whether you liked or disliked a project, which one did you learn, grow, or developed the most from?  Please explain. I think the animal head because you totally chose the head and you had to make it good.
  
•  Choose 1 piece of art that you used skills and techniques learned from previous projects.  Discuss your growth as an artist and how you incorporated these skills and techniques to create the piece.   Provably the cardboard because I had a lot of practice cutting it up and making it look good.

I also likes this one because not was really fun. I like the chiseling part it felt like I was doing a ice sculpture. Inreallynliked it . Umm then dryin part of this substance was really hot 😐🔥💦💦and that was alright. Overall I likes this one a lot. 

Owhh I really like the shape of this one it really looks like a tall gravy boat thingy idk I honestly like this one the only bad part is when unglazed it 😒 then it got ugly real quick.

I loved this sloth head it wa really creative. I also felt a this point of the sculpture year Iv grown as and artist. The animal heads help everyone grow as an artist cause its one I the prices that you choose and i feel it was good or me aswell.

Art3 final

1).So these two pieces were hard I was really carefree about these two I thought it was going to be easy but it wasn't I will try to approach them differently and see them as a challenge rather than an easy project grade
2).I feel like pencil is my strength and chalk pastel because I've had so much time with them both. Paint in general is my weakness I feel like I don't have any control over them and I can't use them correctly like the techniques and stuff.maybe work on paint more is how I can improve.

3). The acrylic wolf is probably the one I struggled with the most it was hard I didn't expect it to be hard and that's what brought me down I overcame it by using silver and on a white canvas it was beautiful to me

4).the acryllic wolf was my favorite it made me better through out the semester and it made me work and kept me busy

This free project was challenging but it was fun ended up with a nice paint brush holder made with paint brushes 🎯👌 but I threw it away 😔

So here's a sketch💁

Vessel

This was when it wasn't fired and glazed but it turned out a tanish color and I really isn't like it so of with it's head

Dwelling

This dwelling piece was annoying and I really didn't like it. As far as ideas my project didn't go anywhere. 

computer lab day:1

Pit firing is the original method for “baking” clay.  It dates back nearly 30,000 years ago.  This process is done typically in a hole in the ground, or a pit, pots are placed in the pit and burned.  Pit firing is an atmospheric process all of the colors and patterns are derived from the process and what is consume in the fire.  Items that are burned will turn to vapor and will swirl around the pieces in the pit.  If the pieces are hot enough to have their pores open the colored vapor will enter the pore and stay there, if not pot will not have color besides black, gray, or white. There are several variations in which to do a pit fire, this will become up in smoke.

Saggar firing was originally developed to protect wares from ash-slagging and flame-flashing in wood firings, but in contemporary use, with clean-burning gas firings, the process is used in exactly the opposite way
Saggar Firing is the method of creating confined atmospheres within a container or saggar.  The saggar can be made out of anything depending on the type of firing from the traditional refractory clay to newspaper.  Originally saggars were used to protect the finish from the debris flying around the firing chamber from the wood or coal fuel source. Roughly 200 years ago, potters decided to reverse this and use the saggars to hold material near the pieces to dramatically change the finish.

I think this was my favorite but it was really hard to add texture. The individual hair strands too the most amount of time.

I think that this piece took the least amount of time,wasn't really my best but I still really like it.

Sculpture

clown

i didn't really didnt like the subject of the piece. i liked how the clown came out just just not the items in the background. i like how the color turned out in the background it really looks trippy and just cool. i just like my creativity in this piece. i also just love the clown really its creepy and questionable and i love it.

donkey

I love the way this drawing turned out I don't like how the body looks like a sombrero  with little stings hanging down but if you look at the shading it looks like the donkeys body. I love the colors used it wasn't too much and it wasnt less than expected. I love the color the grass. It really blends with the brown. I should cut the white part of the paper off.

shrimp

I actually really like this piece because it gave me a chance to look at something and interpret it onto clay or into clay. This project actually looks realistic I think. I also see that the colors I used rlu did blend well with each other and the glaze really kicked off the shine and I like shine:).  I also like the crevices it makes them look more realistic. All these details add to the realism never takes away.
