The universe is a great and astonishing work by the Lord. The Lord created the finest of details in everything in the universe. On Earth, the Lord created the most beautiful objects such as buildings, nature, and animals. Artists today try to incorperate the objects into there work. In Mount Si ceramics class uses the clay given by nature to make pottery and uses the glaze to color them. In this years' ceramics class I use different techniques, similar colors, and create much more usable objects for my daily life.
There are many techniques for different objects but I stick to basic forms when creating my bowls and my cylinders.
For my bowls, they tend to all be similar in size and the top usually flares out. I do this because when having an average size they all stick to being more in a more basic. Rather than having such a big bowl and a small bowl to ruin the images produced in the big picture of the projects. Similarly, I use a basic form on cylinders and try to make them tall. The taller they are makes them all seem simlar in shape to show that they are really cylinders. It also helps me to me able to form the top if i want to make it a wheel altered or put objects above it and not try to change the form of the cylinder completely making it still look like a cylinder. There are different ways of making projects in ceramics but basic helps me in being able to do more with my projects.
Now, the glaze of my projects are usually similar in amount and variety. The amount of glaze i put on a project is usually around two glazes. I do this so that the project doesn't get too messy and it looks cleaner. The two usually compliment each other also making the projects stand out especially when the project isn't well made. I stick to making most of the projects the same color. I used white a lot because white helps the other color which is usually turqoise stick out and not be all over the place. Sticking to the same colors also helps me make my projects look similar to each other making an identity on what I make. The glazes usually make the basic projects look greater than what they actually are. My colors on my projects are usually the same in quantity and variety.
Lastly, my projects are created to be more usable in my daily life. My bowls are made for soups, food and random miscellaneous. I made them this way so that my family can use it and not just myself. Ive had chicken noodle soup placed on it as well as different types of food like chicken, rice and spaghetti. It also helps me organize stuff much more easily; creating space for random junk around my house that need a home. I also made my cylinders able to help around the house with the junk. My cylinders are made to be tall so it can hold objects such as pencils, pet food, and other junk. My plates were made fairly big just so that I can use it for big meals. This helps put a spot for every little bit of food on the plate. My items are made to help me stay organized and be able to eat in my daily life.
My projects all are created using different strategies, a low variety of glazes, and to help sustain my organization in life. These projects are helpful to me because they show the effort I put into them and quality i think about when creating the type of art found in ceramics. These arts make life easier and more meaningful and thats how the artists in modern day should see it as. For the world was created in a fantastic manner and should be looked close at through every tiny detail. The Lord made sure that everything in the world was just amazing and thats why he focused on the littlest of details that we should all appreciate one way or another.
