1 of my truths was I have piloted a plane before

# data[].attributes.body
I made a penguin that can fly

Make something by flattening, pinching, and rolling. 

# data[].attributes.body
I made a stack of pancakes by flattening, and made an eel next to some seaweed by both rolling and pinching

# data[].attributes.body
My background, I made with slabs and using slip & score.

# data[].attributes.body
This is the base shape of my koi-fish after I hollowed it out.

# data[].attributes.body
Here's where I added scales on the back of the fish by layering small circles.

# data[].attributes.body
Building of more details in the face and gills of the fish, making the face more accurate to an actual fish.

# data[].attributes.body
This is where I added the fish's fins and tail, and I added line details on the fins.

# data[].attributes.body
I added details to the eyes, and added headphones.

# data[].attributes.body
The wave to hold up the fish

# data[].attributes.body
Details added to the wave, and the fish secured onto the wave.

# data[].attributes.body
The koi fish in this piece represents me since koi fish are one of my favorite animals, and koi fish are a Japanese fish and I lived in japan when I was a little girl. The wave represents how I used to live overseas, and how my family loves to travel to new places. The fish is wearing headphones because I love listening to music and it's a big part of my life. It is hard to find me without my earbuds in my ears. I tried to do the scales in a style like that children's book The Rainbow Fish to tie in how I'm a little kid at heart.

# data[].attributes.body
Here was where i was going to have the spine to hold up the ribcage i was making.

# data[].attributes.body
I missed a few photos, but I rolled out one huge slab, and cut this out. I then sat it up and cut out little squares so later I could make the squares one long rib-bone.

# data[].attributes.body
Unfortunately, I didn’t do a very good job at keeping this standing upright and it cracked and fell, breaking in half.

# data[].attributes.body
I started again, rolling out three smaller slabs. I cut out the shape of each of them and instead of laying them up and down, I laid them on the back. I used paper to give them their round shape.

# data[].attributes.body
I cut out of a slab some small circles that fit the shape of the bottom of the ribcages. This way, I can stack them on top of each other in a totem pole way.

# data[].attributes.body
This is the cut out hand from the slab I rolled

# data[].attributes.body
Here is where I started to round out the fingers and making them look more like fingers then they did.

# data[].attributes.body
Here is where I added the fingernails to the fingers

# data[].attributes.body
This is where I pulled the thumb forward

# data[].attributes.body
Here is where I added all the depth to the palm of my hand

# data[].attributes.body
Here is where I cut my hand to hollow it out, i hollowed it out and put it back together

# data[].attributes.body
This is where i started adding the detail into my hand like all the creases in my palm and fingers.

# data[].attributes.body
Here is the final picture.

# data[].attributes.body
I started with a bowl made with a mold

# data[].attributes.body
Then I added a foot to the bottom of my bowl

# data[].attributes.body
I started to make the craters by making rings with slip

# data[].attributes.body
I cover the entire bowl with these craters made of slip to make it look like the moon

# data[].attributes.body
Then I use the back of a paintbrush to make smaller craters in the slip, and I use a small sponge to create the texture of the moon’s surface

# data[].attributes.body
And I cover the entire bowl with these smaller craters and textures

# data[].attributes.body
Here is the first finished bowl

# data[].attributes.body
Here is the finished bowl again

# data[].attributes.body
This is a yellowjacket, which is the wasp that i used as reference for this project

# data[].attributes.body
This is the mold of the face i started with

# data[].attributes.body
This is the piece of card stock i cut out to look like the shape of the yellowjacket’s head

# data[].attributes.body
I taped the mask onto the card stock befor building up the mask

# data[].attributes.body
Here is where i used news paper to build up the mask at the top

# data[].attributes.body
building up the mask at the bottom

# data[].attributes.body
This is when I layered it with wheat paste

# data[].attributes.body
These are the details i built up with paper mache. You can see the middle of the bugs face, the eyes, the pinchers, and the two spots at the top where the antenna will go.

# data[].attributes.body
Her are two antennas I made by wrapping newspaper around a wire bent to look like the antenna, and wheat-pasting it down

# data[].attributes.body
Here is after i attached the antennas, and i also built up more in the eyes to make it look more bug-eyed

# data[].attributes.body
I added peas over the back here to make this part textured

# data[].attributes.body
this is the mask from the front, and a little break for your eyes. party rock!

# data[].attributes.body
I painted the whole thing black before i used any other paint

# data[].attributes.body
Here is where i started layering the yellow

# data[].attributes.body
This is what it looked like after I got all the layers of yellow

# data[].attributes.body
I started adding materials, and i started with this twine, wrapped around the antennas.

# data[].attributes.body
If you look at the eyes, I added a window screen to cover the eyes, and make it look like a bug’s eyes.

# data[].attributes.body
I cut up some paper felt, and used it in between some of the twine on the antenna, just to give it a little texture.

# data[].attributes.body
I braided some beads into twine to hang around the antennas

# data[].attributes.body
Here is the braided, beaded twine added onto the mask.

# data[].attributes.body
I added black buttons to the black parts on the mask

# data[].attributes.body
I also added some brown buttons to tie together the colors of the twine

# data[].attributes.body
I added moss around all the yellow parts of my mask too add more texture

# data[].attributes.body
The feathers I used were large white feathers, layered below smaller grey feathers. The feathers represent wings for the yellowjacket.

# data[].attributes.body
I cut up some black straw and layered it like this onto a piece of construction paper to add to the back of my mask

# data[].attributes.body
Here is the straw added onto the back, and the final picture.

# data[].attributes.body
This is the clean, finished work.

# data[].attributes.body
This is it glazed, sitting in my room. i used it to hold my lego flowers

# data[].attributes.body
This is a clean picture of it

# data[].attributes.body
This is glazed, and its green!!

# data[].attributes.body
This is the glazed inside of the bowl

# data[].attributes.body
here is where i started dennis walter’s beautiful shape, horns and all

# data[].attributes.body
me outside on the floor at 5 in the morning

# data[].attributes.body
I gave him legs! so he can sit there and look pretty

# data[].attributes.body
I cut off his head

# data[].attributes.body
Here is his main body hollowed out

# data[].attributes.body
He looks a little creepy in this picture but thats ok we still love him

# data[].attributes.body
look at him all put back together again!

# data[].attributes.body
I opened his mouth, gave him teeth, and started giving him some hair/ fur

# data[].attributes.body
Here is more of the fur on his back

# data[].attributes.body
I added details to the hair on his legs/feet and gave him claw-like toes

# data[].attributes.body
and here is dennis walter all done!!

# data[].attributes.body
here is me posing with him

# data[].attributes.body
Here it is from the front

# data[].attributes.body
Here is more added onto the rest of the body

# data[].attributes.body
Here is added legs

# data[].attributes.body
and then he was cut in half

# data[].attributes.body
This is the start of my bird, the head and shoulders

# data[].attributes.body
I carved out the eye depth

# data[].attributes.body
Here is me starting the stump for bongo to sit on

# data[].attributes.body
The stump with more detail

# data[].attributes.body
cut in half stump which I’m frustrated i didn’t just hollow it out from the bottom

# data[].attributes.body
This is me posing with my mask

# data[].attributes.body
Here is me in a dark room with dennis walter

# data[].attributes.body
Here is me using my bird as a phone

# data[].attributes.body
SOFIA IN THE MONKEY HAT🙊

# data[].attributes.body
Birthday king👑

# data[].attributes.body
I carved out the wings on the body of the bird

# data[].attributes.body
After your help, I was able to make the eye for my bird.

# data[].attributes.body
Here is the right eye and left eye together, after I made the left eye

# data[].attributes.body
I started carving out the feathers on the wings of the bird

# data[].attributes.body
Here is more detail on the wings
