My favorite peaces

Yesterday, was my final day in ceramic class and it was also a presentation of best ceramic peaces that each one made. I took some pictures as usual of my favorite one, it is simple bowl shaped by hands and glazed with Clair glaze. Also I painted some flowers on it with black under glaze. You may see some other work next to the art bowl, it is not finished because it took so long to dry out. Hopefully I will finish it next semester.

Small bowl

 Now that i have a big bowl all what i need is a small one but different than the big bowl. When i walked into the class room today i already had an idea in my mind of how to decorate the bowl. 
this picture is the result of my work of today.

This picture shows how it could be a mess  while you are working with the clay.

Glazing Methods

Today our teacher gave us a theory lesson about glazing the clay. There is five ways to glaze the clay:

  1. Dip pots into glaze: it is one of the fastest way of glazing the clay. 
  2. Pour clay in and on: to glaze the interior of the pot all what you have to do is just poured the fluid glaze into a pot and left it for about three seconds, then poured back into the original glaze bucket. The same method could be apply to the surface, all what you have to do is to pour the clay on the surface. 
  3. Brush glaze on.
  4. Sponge glaze on.
  5. spray glaze on.
