Ceramics Project

To start my ceramics project I used white clay to create my plate. The size of the plate was about twice the size of my hand. When I was creating the plate I focused on keeping a triangle theme on the plate. The technique I used was called the slump. My piece's purpose is to hold things like a fancy bowl. I got the idea for my project when I saw some examples online. I learned a few things from this project; the steps to making a ceramics plate, how to get air bubbles out of clay and that making these takes time and effort. I would change one thing with my project and that would be fixing the legs on the bottom of the plate, they made the plate I made wobbly.
