This is my handmade elephant. It is going to be a gift to my friend for Christmas. The yellow glaze represents more of a savanna feel do it. The ears are slitely bent and the trunk bends to the side showing realism. The right foot is slightly behind the left like he is walking. It shows unity with how all of the parts of the elephant are attached to the body. I learned that glazing doesn't always turn out the way you hope it does. Not everything can be perfect but that's why the project is unique. This makes me feel happy with the elephants smile and want to go to the zoo.
This is my planter. The vertical lines show movement throgh the growth of the plant that will grow out of this. The line of green glaze in the middle of the cylinder shows flow as it goes in one hole and out the other. I learned how the way you glaze can show more movement than just doing a solid color. This makes me feel earthy with the blue and green glaze.
