Birch Tree
My theme project is taking organic forms and applying them to my pottery, this one is called birch tree because it is based off a birch tree, It is a pot with a curvy shape and bark line drawn through it, the glaze is white with some black spots. One skill I learned is that if you want to alter a thrown piece you should do it when it is still wet so it doesn't crack. One art element of this piece was texture, this is because the carved bark like texture this project has which makes it akin to an actually tree. A design element is movement because I carved the bark lines in such a way that they show off some parts of the piece. This piece would compliment any organic setting, but also many abstract settings too. If I could have done it again, I would have made it taller.
