Well, I am actually very proud of myself this quarter. I have made, 12 projects to completion, and there are 6 more on the way right now which will be finished after the quarter! I have come very far in my spinning technique too. I made five projects in one day, and I never could have done that before if I hadn't practiced so much. So in terms of that, my work has been improving every day, and I love this class the more and more I am in it! I have been doing my clean up every day, I wipe my wheel and I make sure to tell newbies when they don't clean up. I've been trying to keep my space as clean as I can, however, my jumpsuit is another story...I have been trying very hard to do well in this class because I love it so much, and I am very proud of myself. Go Ariana!
Yesterday I made two projects in class, and then came in after school, and made three more! THAT'S FIVE IN ONE DAY! WOOOHOO. So proud of myself! Ceramics has really been a positive place for me this week. It calms me down and allows my brain to just go into creative mode, and I have been looking forward to it every single day this week. So glad that I am finally to this stage and not being frustrated anymore! I love ar
My first bowl came out of the kiln and the glaze is beautiful! I am so thrilled with it. I made all the bowls to look sort of similar, and my set of three, I am thinking, will be mixing glazes. I footed and put my third bowl in the bisque on friday so that should be out soon, and my second bowl is waiting to be glazed! Very excited! Now I just need to start thinking about all of my other projects I have to do! So busy this week! Agh! I will keep you posted!....hahaha, get it...posted? Because it's a blog...okay. Sorry. I am done now.
I am working on a set of three of bowls! Yay. I made one that had a crack in it when it was bisqued, so hopefully it comes out of the glaze okay. I footed my second bowl today and sent that one off to the bisque as well. Productive day!

Ariana ChriestI am a theatre geek at heart, and so I am ridiculously creative, and usually have no place to put all of that creative energy. So here I am, in ceramics, using those creative juices to make something useful! Archives
