Fall 2009 Pottery Students!

Students!

I can't wait to get going on our projects! We will start out the first four weeks of class handbuilding and then divide the class (1/2 throwing, 1/2 handbuilding)
The first four weeks of class will give you the opportunity to get acquainted with the clay bodies we use, and become familiar with a variety of building techniques (pinch, slab, coil).

If you have any old shoes that you think are extremely cool, or funky, please bring them in!

Hope you all had a great summer!

Final Blog

Final Blog/or I-Book Entries


Images of work in progress with reflection.
Sketches of gesture ideas. (Scan)
Images of artists work that inspired your work. (This is not optional, it must be included!)
Hair Influences (Photograph, artists work, sketches)
Gesture Influences (sketches, photographs, artists work)
Hand Position (Photograph, sketch,artists work)
Clothing Influences - (Photograph, artists work, sketches)

Reflection of the process should be included.
Your intent should be stated. What idea are you communicating? What is the plan?
What are you thinking? What is your goal as an artist?

If you have questions, ask them. I get paid to answer your questions. Its always better to ask than not ask. Remember to ask questions, before the project is due, so you can make the appropriate changes.

I look forward to seeing your final blogs!
