I started coming up with ideas for my art show a month ago. I wanted to make something purposeful, and that I could use. I made a mug so I could have something to drink my water, or sodas out of. I really enjoy drinking stuff out of mugs as it is a super satisfying feeling. I worked super hard with it as I tried two ways of creating it: throwing, and hand building. After multiple trials, I ended up choosing hand building as I felt the most comfortable with it. After the mugs were bisque fired, it was time to choose colors. I really enjoy the colors I choose such as blue and black as their super vibrant and clean-looking colors. I hope that the audience appreciates that doing anything with clay is difficult, and takes time. I hope my art can be enjoyed, as much as I enjoyed creating it!
