Your sculpture turned out well. The faces look like they could be inspired by blind contour portraits, but are not actual blind contour drawings. You did use line, shape and texture to add mass to your work. There is a strong contrast to the positive and negative space. Your use of glazes turned out very well for the random nature that you used to put it on. I am glad that you decided to add the black to enhance the textures and give a bit more contrast to the colors. 95
As for this post, I love the descriptions that you use to explain your work. This is what I am looking for on these posts. You did cover most everything that I asked for; but when you discussed the problem #3 itself, you did not address the positive, negative space or the way that you added mass to your blind contour portrait. 94

Prior to this I had only ever used glaze once, meaning that I had very minimal experience with the materials that I used. Despite this, I created a colorful yet distrubing piece which I will gladly drink tea out of. My main fixation was the texture, which was the backbone for my design. I used small tools to etch in ridges and puncture the clay to create holes. I wanted to create a hyper realistic, uncomfortable creature who could jump out at you at any moment. My main focus throughout the entire project was to make something scary, and by utilizing a blind contour protrait it aided in the warped feel.

The glaze was interesting, especially because when using it it can be hard to tell exactly how it will turn out. To help remedy this I used thick layers, making sure my pigment would be strong and smooth. This is evident in my lack of muddy colors despite my use of many hues. To distract from the colors, I added black on the high points of the piece, almost like a reverse contour. This pulled the piece together and played off of the fantasy and nonrealistic elements that I was playing with.

Although I was out of my element I was able to use my natural artistic ability and my knowledge of art to create a piece. I do not feel as if I made any mistakes, and if I did they contributed to the piece in a positive manner.

Overall I think I did well on this project, and hope to create something more twisted in the future.
