I wanted to include this visual journal entry to show my creative process. A lot of my pieces consist of two separate ideas confirming to one and I tend to use different colors to create such a piece. Knowing me I’m very indecisive so for me to come up with a final decision I have to see it drawn out first.

This visual journal entry was written in the beginning of the year. Moving on in my artworks later, came back to this page and was inspired to build an idea off of it. As a note, I like to sketch down ideas I have for artworks, hoping I can come across them later or I can hopefully bring them to life.

I approached this piece, knowing what I wanted to do, but visually wasn’t able to comprehend. One way I was able to conquer this was by drawing out my thoughts so they won’t be forgotten. This allows me to organize and create steps in the process, which is extremely helpful.

No I myself I like to stay organized and making an easy checklist is one of the ways I can stay organized. The satisfaction of checking, something off the list is more achieving then the final result. Making a checklist helps me stay organize and remind myself of past thoughts and to not forget about certain steps.

There are plenty of journal entries within my sketchbook that look crazy like this one. When feeling uninspired, I like to sketch out random things and ideas that will hopefully lead to an artwork. This way, no ideas are forgotten, and I can always go back to a previous thought I had even if I can’t remember. Journal entries like to use are where I get my inspiration from. ￼

At the beginning of this artwork, I had a certain goal in mind, but I was having a hard time processing what it would look like and the outcome. So I resorted to my visual journal, hoping that I could help me process my piece visually. After sketching out my thoughts, and what I thought would be my original piece ended up not working out. I had to come up with a similar idea but without this sketch, I wouldn’t have known whether the process was capable of doing or not.

This was one of my first journal entries and first artworks. I had a certain goal in mind, but I was it able to rehearse and what it might look in reality. I decided to draw out different ways I could express my feelings in certain notes, such as the height and color, so it wouldn’t be forgotten.￼

I’ve been referred to look at multiple artist to gather inspiration from and Liz was one of the first artists that inspired me to take on a similar idea to hers. Among many other artists each, I will learn different things. When I was struggling to choose colors for a certain project, I would look up artist that study and devote their lives to the way colors can be portrayed. ￼

My materials consisted of B mix clay, glazes, and wax.

This was my second high quality artwork and I wanted to see what it would look like for everyday objects to be dysfunctional. I approached this project wanting it to be a mix media.

My materials consisted of B mix clay and a variety of glazes.

After creating the three mugs stuck together I wanted to take a different approach by making a mug on the wheel and placing a wall with in, creating a hole inside the mug. I was super proud walking away from this project.

I used B-Mix Clay with speckles and a glaze.

This vase was originally inspired by a previous vase I made. The idea was to use warn that I could interweave between the holes and finish it up by placing flowers. However this idea wasn’t successful. The glaze ended up closing the holes making it impossible to thread the warn. This inconvenience ending up leading to a different outcome.

I used B-Mix Clay and two glazes

This was the first project I made at the beginning of the year. It was based off of a story in the Bible about the woman in the alabaster jar. I wanted to re-create the jar that was broken by breaking a pot myself. I enjoyed making this piece, but if I were to re-create it now, there would definitely be changes.

My materials consisted of B mix clay and a variety of glazes.

I was inspired by a previous mistake that happened last year in the kiln. I wanted to recreate that mistake and make it into art. By adding three mugs together and glazing them together I turned it into art.

I was super excited to bring this sketch to life. I love the colors and shape, line, and texture this piece creates and I’m extremely happy with the way my piece worked out.
