Artists Take Risks
I took a risk with my artwork by switching my idea in the middle of working on my project. I originally wanted to make a lily pad with a lotus flower for the theme of nature. I made the lily pad but once I started the flower I was unsure of my decision. I decided to make a cobra bowl instead of my original idea.
Artists Develop Art Making Skills
For this project I developed the skill of smoothing out coils without making them flat. For nature I made a snake so I had to create the effect that the snake was curled up so I needed the outside of my bowl to be wavy to look like the snake's body. Normally when I make a bowl I completely smooth out the coils but this time I left them and only smoothed out the bottoms. |
