Reflection of Mugs

When beginning the mug assignment, I first had some difficulties with creating my form.  This created some frustration, but I realized that every time I messed up, I would have a better chance of doing it right the next time. After multiple times of creating new mug formations, I had a form that I was happy with.  My form was the smaller size of the two options we had to choose from.  Creating a drawing plan/ stencil was very useful in knowing what to do with the form to make it more interesting. I also felt that the technique used to transfer the color marker stencil was also very practical and convenient. The carving design featured on my mug is a sun and a moon.  Although the sculpting of my form is complete, I still have future plans for my mug.  After it is fired, I hope to add color/ glaze to my mug form to complement its two-faced stencil design.
