My Best Glazed Tile
This was my best glazed tile. I like the way the glaze fills the indentations. It creates texture and also helps the viewer see the lines created. Because of this technique, the piece has movement. I believe this tile was successful because it fills the space and keeps the viewer occupied. If I had to do this again I would have chosen a different color.
My Favorite Tile
This was my favorite tile. I loved it because it shows my personality. The shape of
the necklace creates form. The way the glaze has been applied gives the tile a smooth to rough texture. Having a white background makes the green color pop or creates emphasis. I feel this piece was pretty successful, but if I had to do it again I would make the necklace more successful.

My Mug
I used the flowers to move the viewers eye. The bold colors in the flowers create emphasis. Also, in my leaves I used texture. The mood of my work is happy. I believe this work is successful, because it has unity. If I could change what I did with my mug I would add more texture and choose better colors.
Ceramics End-Of-Year Reflection
Throughout the entire year my favorite project had to have been making mugs. I really enjoyed it because in the end it probably was the most functional piece I made this year. This project also taught me a lot about sculpting and I learned what works best when making projects. My mug was my favorite piece I made this year and one I take the most pride in. This is a project worth keeping for future classes.
The most valuable piece of information I learned this year was the process of making pieces. Learning how to wedge, glaze, and everything in between was important. This is useful because I now am aware of how clay is made into art. Also, if I ever wanted to make something in the future I now know the basic steps. Knowing this process could prove beneficial later on.
In ten years I think the thing I will remember the most will be my friends. I made a few close friendships in this class that hopefully will last a long time. I also think I will remember how much fun it was to work with clay. It was fun learning the process of making a clay piece. These are things I hope I remember in ten years.
