This is my hand and wheel project. The vase is 5 inches tall, 4 inches wide at the lip, and 6 inches wide at its largest point in the body. The body of the vase features waves which I attached by hand, then I carved in movement lines and fish in the ‘water.’ There is a multitude of colors on my vase, including Sydney's blue, dark cobalt, dandelion, blue green, and clear. The clear is on the top of the vase, and all of the other colors are in the water. The inside was glazed in dark cobalt. The new skill that I used to make this was slipping and scoring to attach a hand project to a wheel project. The waves and the carved out parts create an interesting sense of space within my project because of all of the different levels of depth. There are both elements that are carved in and pop out. The space creates contrast in the piece because each layer is glazed with different colors, and the clear glaze contrasts from the blues of the water. Overall, I find this piece to be peaceful because of the denotation of water’s waves. I am very proud of this piece.
