Figure Project

Sketch:

Some Problems (already): The Strawberry was being a butt, the cake wouldn't stay circular and was hard to get to the shape I got

Some troubles I had with the project was my Oval Cake being OVAL. and the Cardboard being a stinky booty. The most successful about this project was the shape of the head. If I could change anything I would not do anything ever again like this because it was too hard to do cardboard but I wanted to challenge myself but I'm too lazy for challenges
My Process:
Affixed wire in certain positions to create the shape I want.
Wrap Wire with Aluminum foil and stuffed with trash/grocery bags.
Put tape to secure everything.
Mache/Cardboard it
Joint Compound it and paint

Installation

This was a class work.
The idea was to make a wall of yarn and have people post what they want on the wall (relating to the question "What my future holds").
I kind of thing it worked since there were a lot of cards.
I might change the timing this was planned because this was poorly planned.

These are installations I really liked. 



Vessel Project

Me and Ralib were trying to do wax and ice cream together but that didn't work out. He wanted to do something different so I just went with the ice cream cone we had planned. It was kind of hard to do.

Process: I took a slab and I measured out a nice size for the sides and cut that out and made the little cup part. Then I made the smaller cup part and stuck that on the side. I took what I had for the bottom and cut around it to make the bottom part so I could not have a hole in it. I had to cut away a lot to get the ice cream cone kind of shape inside and outside.

My difficulties would be the size, the shape, the detail that I lacked

What was most successful is that it came out looking kind of like and ice cream cone.

I made it so me and Ralib could do our wax ice cream and glazed ice cream cone but that didn't work out so I just have an ice cream cone.

Coil Project

Coil, putting Glaze

Finished Coil Piece 



Relief Piece


I used clay for this piece.
The most successful thing I would say are the crystals.
If I was to change it, I probably wouldn't change anything because I really like it already.
It is related to Nature because crystals can be formed naturally

Quartz found naturally:

Me Trying the Wheel :D

Honestly, the wheel is fun and frustrating at the same time. Kind of like programming :D
