I make art because I enjoy it, and it’s a fun process to go through. I like to use red clay and different pattern designs. Art is important to me because you see it almost everywhere you go, and you can use it to decorate many things.

I made a slab box out of red clay. I cut out 4 slabs of clay, and scored and slipped them together to form a box. Then I added clay in the shape of rocks and bricks and scored and slipped them onto the box. I made a pattern next to the rocks and bricks using a needle tool. Then i added a lid with a handle and a stopper. I liked the pattern and colors, because it worked really good together. I didn’t like the lid, it didn’t look right with the piece. If I made this again I would change it by adding rocks and bricks to every side and make it even, and I would not make a lid.

A slab built plate that I made with 2 pounds of high fire clay. I used a ruler to make 6 even lines across my plate. I used a cutting tool to make the dots and then stained them with airbrush. I painted it with a light green underglaze. After it was fired I put clear glaze over it. I liked the pattern that i used with the dots, it looked really good. I didn’t like the bottom, it was to plain. If I were to make it again I would change take the lines away, and just keep the dots.

I made a box slab vessel. I cut slabs and scored and slipped them together to form a vessel. After it was fired I made a pattern and taped it. Then I glazed over the tape, and removed it when it was dry so I could see the pattern. I really liked the colors, and the lines. One thing I didn’t like was shape, it didn’t turn out how I wanted. If I were to remake this project I would clean it up better, and make it smaller.
