Teapot 1: Clay: Cone 10 VC Porcelain #1. Glaze: Sweet Sexy Chun Red Reduction. Slip casted and thrown form.
As you can see, the bottom of the teapot is broken. The glaze I used is very runny and it ran so much that the glaze made a pool around my teapot and welded it to the shelf. My professor knocked it off with a piece of wood and this is what remains. The spout and handle were slip casted from a mold I hand-built.
Teapot 2: Clay: Cone 10 VC Porcelain #1. Glaze: Turquoise Celadon Reduction. Slip casted and thrown pieces.
As much as I love this teapot, the lid is sadly welded to the top because a little glaze ran into the crevice. Same handle and spout as previous teapot.

Hand built McDonalds meal out of porcelain. There is a previous post about this project but here is a more professional photo.

This is my first figure sculpture. She is half to three quarters life size and built hollow. I was rushed into building this in three or four days when I would have ideally worked on it for a couple weeks to perfect it. I learned a lot while building her and I cannot wait to start a new one to make it even better.
