Some New Things
Making things with clay is good fun. I think the key is to have a reason to make something. Once you work out what that reason is you will put all your energy into that piece.
Living in Taiwan for the past 11 years I have been exposed to more Asian Art. I wasn't really into any art when I was younger but now I get a lot of enjoyment from looking at different styles of art. Below I have tried to play around and make things I like...
 |
| A Japanese sand garden. |
 |
| I enjoy trees so I tried to make one from clay. |
 |
| A dead branch. |
 |
| It's easier making nice big roots like these with clay compared to growing them with your own bonsai. |
 |
| A large tea cup or small noodle bowl. Height - 8cm Width - 10.5 cm |
 |
| A clay stone tea pot. 100% clay. |
 |
| Annie's on the left, Marcus' on the right. |
 |
| Electric kiln firing. |
 |
| A sake vessel to get drunk from. I like the imperfections. The Japanese say there is perfection in the imperfect. Pretty deep? |
 |
| The other side. |
 |
| Have to find a way to clean up the bottom part. |
 |
| Wood fired pouring vessel. |
