My tall project is a light brown case with decorations in different shades of blue. I did not learn any new skills while making it, but my wonderful teacher told me that it's so lopsided because of how I was sitting, which I fixed for later projects. My project's *ahem* interesting glaze created a smooth texture in the blue highlights which caused movement to those spots, since they contrasted the brown. This pot looks very earthy, and I suppose it is a decent vase, but I think I can make one much better, so right now, this is a placeholder.

For our group Coil project, Austin, Jack, and myself made a blue and white Spanish punctuation pot (hence the upside down exclamation points and question marks), with a solid red clay base. For our project, my group had to practice keeping our coils from drying out since our project almost broke numerous times. We used color to create contrast in two places, firstly we made the punctuation white and the pot blue, and we left the red clay as it was to offset the blue as well. Our project is representative of the Spanish language because it features three different Spanish language symbols, and Sra. Foster was very appreciative of our theme.
my first bowl project is a smallish bowl glazed with light brown and light blue that has a dripped effect on its edge. With this project, I practiced using thinner glazes to get colors to drop down which I believe worked quite nicely. I used the line and color of the dripped glaze to create movement with the viewer, since the glaze is very pronounced in my project. My bowl reminds me of a beach, with the wavy pattern of the blue meeting the sandy pattern of the light brown.
.My bowl is a medium sized metallic brown bowl with a circle of dark green and light greenish blue in the center. I used this project to practice working with darker colored glazes, since I don't use them very often and I thought this would be a good opportunity. I used color to create a sharp contrast between the metallic brown and the lighter blue and green. This project has a mildly earthy feel because of the pop of green on the brown.
