Ceramics

I hadn't done any ceramics for a few years, so I really enjoyed experimenting with them in the studio.

I got help from my coursemate and the technicians regarding the techniques and good practice.

I ended up creating a range of different earrings and brooches, all expanding on the pattern making I have been using to create wrapping paper.

WHAT WORKS:
- Fun just to play and see what came of it without pressure of final pieces
- the colour contrasts make them very attractive and versatile

WHAT DIDN'T:
- The yellow didn't show through very vibrantly
- Some curling occurred, despite flattening them during drying- need to figure out how to stop this!

WHAT NEXT?
- make them into sellable jewelry pieces
- Expand my medium use and see what other ways I could sell my work
