For this artwork I was going for a pineapple. I'm really into plants so I wanted to make a little pot that looks like a pineapple and then the plant coming out of the top would look like the top of a pineapple. I used Sassy Yellow for the base color and Yadro for the brown specks. I used develop craft and engage and persist for my studio habits. I used develop craft when I was working with the clay because It's something pretty new to me. Forming and making details in the clay is something I haven't done much. I used engage and persist many times. I spent a whole day trying to form the pot right and I couldn't get it. I kept going though and I finally came out with something I liked. It turned out pretty good and I like how it actually resembles a pineapple for the most part. I am so glad I added the last glaze for the brown spots because I think that's what really made it perfect.

My plan is to create a semi realistic girl figure. I'm not sure on how I will paint her yet. I want the proportions to look balanced. I'm using the develop craft studio habit because I am learning how to work with wire and aluminum foil which is something new to me. I'm trying to really engage by spending a lot of time sculpting this figure so that it looks proportionate. So far I have built the wire frame and have started piecing on the aluminum foil. Im trying to express balance as much as I can.
My artwork is a collection of differently shaped and colored glass shards on a white cabinet door. I have a couple of differently colored circles glass rocks as well. They are arranged to show proportion. So that means that there are straight edges on the outside and odd edges of the insides. All of the pieces together create a rectangle. The process of creating my artwork was first of all finding the materials (Which was leftover shards from a different project and a leftover cabinet in the barn) then arranging and glueing them to my liking. I searched through and tried different pieces in different places until I thought it looked proportional. The big idea behind my artwork is the phrase "A place for everything and everything in its place." Keeping things organized and in place is my biggest way to handle anything that comes my way and I wanted to show that even though these shards seem chaotic, if they are put in the right place, they still are organized and they are proportional. My goal for this artwork was to make it proportional and to have organized chaos. My overall thoughts on my artwork is that I really like how I arranged everything. It was almost therapeutic and it was a fun project. I think it looks very good.
