This 9 weeks I have made a total of 15 pieces. My inspirations were Hanna Wagner and Madison Staub. Hanna inspired me to make my pieces more "perfect". Madisons techniques with her glazing helped make mine turn out better. At first I focused on hand building like pinching, coil, and slab work. Towards the end I used the wheel a lot more, I enjoyed seeing myself improve, especially with centering. I chose these pieces to be my final project because they turned out the best in my opinion and they are most appealing to me. This year I feel that I have improved the most on the wheel, even if most of my pieces were small. If I could change or made anything better I would have made more mugs and focused more on glazing. I struggled with pinch pots the most this year, I could never get them to be even everywhere. Several other students in Ceramics helped me with centering on the wheel, and giving me different ideas, especially with glazing.
