This is my set of three that I made on the wheel. I glazed them with black and tomatoe red glaze. The tallest one is 3 3/4 inches by 4 1/2 inches tall,  and the shortest one is 1 1/4 inches tall and 3 1/4 inches wide. They all have the same simple shape that flips out on the top. To jazz up the project I glaze them with about 3/4 of the pot black and the rest red.

Symetery is used many places to pull things together or almost tie up loose ends in the world of art and design. My wider than tall project that was made on the wheel is short, but wide. The symeterical wavy lines originating from the center of the bowl, give a symeterical feel. In the lines there was supposed to be shadow green glaze, but that did not turn out perfectly. The rest is glazed lightly with black, but turned out to be a dark chocolate brown. The wavy symeterical lines pull the project together and give it a very simple, yet playful mood, in the sence of not wanting another plain bowl.

This is the start of my wheel altered project. It is a mug with a place for your fingers to stay warm when filled with hot liquids. I finished assembling it on wednesday and now i am waiting for it to dry. I am attempting to dry it slowly because i don't want the two pieces to break apart.

 

This is my taller than wide project. I made this project on the wheel. the form got squished and gave it a cool ripple in the middle. I glazed this project with the shadow green glaze. The glaze sits kind of thick in the rippled part and at the bottom by the foot ring. In the thick areas the glaze looks really matalic and shinny. The somewhat complex form looks good with the simple glaze. The ripple really stands out, and looks as if done on propose.
