Elements of Ceramics
Freshman Class of 2022
This was the first time I have ever taken a ceramics class and I enjoyed it and learned some new skills. Throughout the semester I learned how to hand build, throw, and trim. I used these tactics to help me create my art show. I had plates and bowls at my house that had vertical designs that I liked and I wanted to create more. I used the wheel to throw two bowls and two plates. I trimmed them on the wheel with trimming tools. Then I used glazes to paint them. I tried to make them in the same design as the plates I had at my house. I really enjoyed taking this class and learned lots of new skills.
