Potter's Wheel - Ceramics 1

The Ceramics 1 students have begun throwing on the potter's wheel.  They are focusing on centering the clay and throwing a six inch cylinder.  Some students have advanced to bowls, vases, and mugs.

 

 

 

Faux Mosaic Tile

Students are creating 6”x6” faux mosaic tile using any theme of their choice.  The tile must lie flat and have accurate measurements.  They may choose another shape, however it must be comparable to 6” x 6”.  The faux mosaic must be divided into at least 10 sections and be ¼ inch thick.  All surfaces must be covered in texture.

These are some examples shown in class as well as a tutorial from Ceramic Arts Daily.
