Swirled Sculptures
Ally Placide
Ceramic Studio Workshop
2022
This is my second time taking a ceramics class. I took elements of ceramics last year and I loved it and wanted to take a more advanced class. My art show is a variety of shapes and pieces but all with colored clay swirled in. Making colored clay takes awhile and is difficult to put in the pieces. I wanted to challenge myself and try all different shapes with the colored clay. I also wanted to add a unique pop of color into my pieces. To make colored clay, you have to wedge powder into the clay and then make that a coil and spiral it around your piece as you're making it. I'm happy that I was able to make these ceramic pieces and I would love to take more ceramic classes in the future and try something even harder.
