PROJECTS,PROJECTS,PROJECTS!

I am done with my tree house,cup and my box.I just need more clay and slabs for my lid and cut outs. I am all worked OUT!!! I am excited to do more clay projects though! 

Just a little bit more...

So I am halfway done with my clay box, all I need is a lid and some more cut outs for my designs to put on/inside my box. I am waiting for some more clay to be made, since my wait, I have painted my cup and now I am clear coating it. My Tree Candle holder is already ready for me to paint, so I will be doing that some time this week. I am trying to finish everything this week so I can start something new next week. I hated all my projects when I first started making them, BUT seeing them fired and painted makes me like them just a little bit more...

Painting!

Now that these projects are ready to be painted, I have some ideas for them.I am currently looking around at some of my favorite clay artists...

Cut-Outs

I HAVE ALREADY CUT OUT DESIGNS AND PUT THEM ON MY BOX!
I STILL NEED MY LID AND MORE CUT OUTS! I FIRST NEED TO DRAW THEM ON HARD PAPER THEN CUT OUT THE DESIGNS THEN CUT THEM OUT ON CLAY!

Slabs are cut!

Here are my cut outs.I still need a slab for my lid.But for right now I will finish doing my designs/

SLABS

My two slabs are ready.One of the slabs was made by you Mrs.Wheeler on Monday. I have to wait till tomorrow to get started my box so my slabs can dry.

More box layouts

This will be on the top of the box, The skulls will be a lot bigger on drawn like the "Day of the Dead" skulls.  For me, the skulls represent my deep love for them.They just seem really cool and I like the shape and everything. Some skulls have a "Sign" that they are bad the way people represent them. But they are not. 

Box layout

My box will have 1 eye on each side. The reason for that is because it is my symbol for " I am always watching" meaning, I have had a lot of things Ive seen. The small boxes right beside that is the top of the box on the lid.I am not a good drawer but I tried to make it as clear as possible.

Trees don't bark

I accidentally made the cutest house.As you can see the house,the windows are "open". I had the windows cut out because I actually made this house to a candle holder.I wanted the windows cut out so that way when you put the candle inside,the light will shine out and you can see in and see the candle.I made a hole at the bottom so the candle will slide right in and the top is gone because,I didn't know what to make for it.I thought it will be a good idea if i just buy something for the top and I'll just decorate it.In the back is a table "wooden" chairs or benches.The roses are front because I wanted to have some type of beauty to it.There are three tree stumps on the side to make the "tree stumps" stand out and to give it more of a tree forest look. I feel as if I make a base for this and make some more things then it will make it look really cool and exciting.

Pot full of snake

To get my ideas flowing I thought of this, It's a tea pot with handles that look like a snake. I had many similar ideas to this but I thought the snake coming out of the pot was really cool. The tea pot will have holes all around. I wanted to make something that will make you think. "Why does this tea pot have holes?" I also might add something else, like an irregular shape to it, I just don't know yet.

Tree House

I really like trees and I thought for my project I will make a tree... that looks like a house. The sketch I did above will look similar to the one that I will make. The bottom of the tree will not be curved shaped like the sketch but it will look exactly like the root of a real tree. I wanted to add a bunch of branches, but I know that it will not be able to work because I already tried to do a tree project. But not like this one. So here is my idea...erm..bye.

Broken projects make me mad

Here was the vase I WAS working on...until it decided to crack in a lot of places.I was working on this for like a week and a half. But not anymore.Since I dont want to waste it, Im going to let it dry and paint it really cool.

Christine Federighi

Here is Christine Federighi's house artwork. The thing I like about her house artwork are the shapes of the houses, the colors, and just everything about them. The paintings look so good and the creativity is awesome.

Jean Cappadonna

This is Jean Cappadonna artwork. Her work amazing ! The Dream houses were a bit to much for me, but they were so cool. But this house is really cool. I didnt find the meaning of the piece,but Im pretty sure its somewhere. This house/artwork is probably the best I have seen throughtout the 5 artists.

Dave

Here is One of my favorite clay house made by Dave. It has a house on top of a house  and the paintings on it is just amazing. I was thinking about making a house just like this, but since he already made one then I will have to make a different style one.
