For this project I tried to create a lantern. The media for this project was a firm slab piece of clay, which means after I cut out all the pieces I needed from a slab of soft clay, I let it sit out over night so that it could harden and become easier to work with in a upright position. One new skill that I learned was, after slipping and scoring all the pieces together, how apply a thin roll of clay to the creases to help adhere the individual clay pieces to each other even further. One of the main art elements on this piece, are the lines. Specifically referring to the leaves on the sides of the lantern. The leaves with that dark green color really pop of of the sides, they also look very dark in contrast of the light sides. All together this project feels very earthy. with the brown inside, and the green leaves with the tarnish outside, it gives a very earthy and natural feel.
