New Project

We Started a New Project today, and my Project will involve me making Glazes out of different common materials... like cat Litter, ToothPaste, Alka-Seltzer, Comet, Rolaids, and many other things... i am super excited for this, part of it will involve making all the glazes and testing them out, and the other part will involve making bowls to glaze my work with. but i estimate this to be a Semi-long Project because i have to make all of these glazes and they all have to be Fire tested too.

Still Excited, Expect Pictures :]

Open House

Last Friday was Open House at Surface Gallery. Rose, Rhiannon and I all went to see Chromatic for the last time and to hang out with Mrs. C and the Other Artists.

I took a Few Pictures of Chromatic because next time I go to the Gallery, Chromatic will be no More. January 23 will be the opening for 'Layers' so all of Chromatic will be gone.


Friday was a Fun Night, I think i finally was semi welcomed by the Art Community when all of Mrs. Cavanaghs friends all sat down and Talked to Me, Rose and Rhiannon.

even though Mrs. C was not happy that Liz' brother asked us to get Fake IDs so we could go dancing with them... I liked the Idea... lol.

Im excited for Layers, but semi sad to watch Chromatic Leave.

Paper - Surface Gallery



Well, i know it has been a while, but im finally getting around to posting pictures from Paper.


This was the First Event held at Surface Gallery, the Gallery Owned by my Ceramics Teacher, Mrs. Cavanagh



First Friday was an amazing Night, I had a Wonderful Time with Mrs. Cavanagh, and Rose was there two, Vick and Brent were both Nice, but Liz and Mrs. C were the Life of the Party. there was a Wheel there, and me and Rose both Demonstrated Throwing on the wheel, and later that night, Mrs. C and Liz bith tried to throw. it was a little late, and after a night of partying, it was too much to ask. plus not having the required tools nessisary was not easy.



Paper Featured Mrs. Yvonne Cavanagh, Miss Vicky Cruz, Miss Liz Sherwyn, and Mr. Brent Eviston, all four of them using Paper as a idea for their ideas for art. Mrs. C. made Paper like plates and bowls focusing on the lightness, airy, and smooth quality of Porcelain.










Vicki Took Paper, and Painted Paper in her Art Work.















Brent Drew these Wonderful pieces of Art, and made them look thin and wispy.




















And Liz actually Used Paper to make these cut outs which really look amazing up close and under good light. but you really cant see them well in these pictures.
