Finding a body of work
Tuesday, November 21st, 2017
I work in textiles, wood, and clay, so sometimes it takes me a while to see a body of work in my efforts. This week I gathered up all of the canteen projects I had left over. The earliest ones were the ceramic donut shapes, followed by wooden donuts (torus is the technical term), the Roman canteens that Dennis teaches, and then two beer bottle openers disguised as canteens.
The ones with medallions are a great opportunity to use different kinds of textures, pyrography, color, metallic patinas, and even pewter. I have a feeling that there are a lot of options that I have left to explore.
