Spring 2018 Art Show CollectionWelcome to my show! This is my second semester of ceramics. My show includes eight vases. While looking for inspiration, I found lots of vase pictures online. There was a great variety of vases in the pictures I saw, and this made me want to try some of the forms. I had always wanted to try to make vases but always had trouble keeping the clay from collapsing. These eight vases show variations of vases with different shapes and sizes. After trying new techniques such as the teapot, I moved to vases and worked hard to create these. With glazes, I dipped a couple of layers of Oasis on top of a full coat of Purple Pansy. I only applied the couple of layers of Oasis on the top part of the vases to increase the movement as the glaze slowly flowed down the side of the vase. The main idea of my show is to show the great variety vases offer. The different forms of my vases emphasize this, and the glaze brings them all together. I hope to have the pleasure of taking ceramics again! Enjoy!
