The medium for this project is clay. The size is 17 cm long and 8 cm tall. The design element stressed in this project was form. The technique used with this peice of work was slab hump molding. My peice serves as a cereal bowl. First I sketched some designs in my sketchbook. Then, using a circular paper I cut out the shape of the outside of the bowl by folding the circle 4 times until it looked like a piece of pie. Then using scissors, I cut out a design, resulting in the square castle design around the bowl. I learned more about how I can manipulate clay and how much heat is needed to fire the bowl. I also had hands on experience of actually putting the bowl in the kiln.
