New Stuff

So this is my first semester at CSU-Channel Islands, and I gotta say, I am loving it! So far we have done textiles and a demonstration project. I haven't been so good about posting regularly, sorry. To make up for it are some pictures from the past few months.

 These are some textile pieces. I basically put as many different glaze combinations on there that I could possibly keep track of.

 This is the beginnings of my demonstration project. The objective was to teach both the upper division and lower division students something clay related that could help them with either surface decoration or construction. I decided to teach everyone how to alter the form make this billowed/upholstered-look. It doesn't have to be specifically for throwing, but that is what I demonstrated with.

 

Here are some bisque (first) fired pieces, ready for glaze. Some of these are the fruits of my demo-project labors.
