Unit 1

My second project in this class was a face; something loosely humanoid, though able to be mythical. I was fairly happy with the outcome- though, when fired and turned into bisque ware, it was obvious that I hadn't smoothed the piece enough before it was fired, and was very rough and textured. If I were to attempt it again, I would spend more time on smoothing the piece.

Plan & Follow-through:

1. Wedge clay

2. Use some kind of Mayan/Aztec

sculpture as a reference

3. Use strong, sharp features

4. Carve out the back until it is

no thicker than my thumb

5. Add unique final touches!
