It turned out okay, I didn't expect this pineapple to be perfect but I'm glad it at least came out okay

i don’t really have a creative process.. i start working on a piece with almost nothing in mind, and my hands move to what feels right. once i start working, my hands take the lead and i stop when my hands tell me to.. so basically, this piece was not planned— a happy accident if you must.

I typically sketch really small and work small as well, so this is just the first page of sketches for my vase. The shape of my vase is very geometrical and it has flat surfaces on the part where we combined two bowls. I’ve really been into sun and star designs and lots and lots of yellow haha! So I was thinking of making a kind of space design with the sun and stars. Not too sure the colors other than yellow but I’ll think of something.

My piece was inspired by Kirby. When I was forming the clay it was more round than an egg so I just thought of Kirby. I wanted it to have a smaller mouth because I wanted the crown to be the main flower holder and the mouth to just be big enough to pour out excess water.

I also thought of something more simple and fun to do around the vase

I still want to shoot for the pineapple idea but I'm just not quite sure of the design

# data[].attributes.body
The extra spout pieces are just for the decor purposes of the vase, so it then became a base design for a depiction of a  pineapple. (Will put together soon)

This is the base vase I have set

Rough sketch for a pinch bowl with lid.

The idea of my design is a bluebell flower in the center.

Can’t wait to put some daisies in those eyeballs! But first, more refining and then sgraffito.

# data[].attributes.body
More refining to be done, but the basic construction, shape, and character are in place!

I wrote some ideas down but am still thinking about how I want to design the sgraffito part. I thought about doing some constellations or doing more of a sea/ocean kind of vibe. Neither of these are for sure designs though :)

I was first contemplating how I wanted to make the ceramic pot and went back & forth between what I want.

I sketched 3 designs of my vase.
