AP Art Showcase


Hey:
So I have either finished or become close to finishing all my pieces...except for one. There is one breadth piece that I want to replace, but I have no idea what to replace it with. I really want to use wood because I haven't done that yet this year. Any ideas?

Head Games


My latest piece is a bust made of clay and it represents "Head Games"...it has mis-matched puzzle pieces on it (also made out of clay). I actually really like this piece, but I just finished sculpting it, so I need to start thinking about what I am going to do to glaze it. I was thinking maybe staining the bust and then glazing the pieces...what do you think? I love suggestions!

5, 4, 3, 2, 1, It's the final countdown...


So both the Variety Show and the AP Showcase are coming up really quickly. 2 weeks! AH!


So I need a couple more concentration pieces and I am making some extra breadth pieces just because I don't really like some of the ones I made earlier this year.


So if anyone has any ideas for any new concentration or breadth ideas for me, please let me know.

Also....COME SEE THE VARIETY SHOW!
The dates are April 16, 17, 23, and 24 at 7:30pm. Plus a 2:00pm Matinee show on April 18.
Tickets are on sale! Order them from the Lakeridge Bookkeeper, Ms. Beers, or online!http://lrhs.tix.com/Schedule.asp?OrganizationNumber=2244

Spring Break Staycation

Hey all:

I am staying home this spring break and I planned on working on some pieces. I have a plan for one that I could do that's like a box without a top and it's made of glass, and each side represents a season. Kind of inspired from the Company Variety Show theme...

Also, I am kind of stuck on my concentration pieces. If you have any ideas for me, please feel free to comment!

Happy Spring,
Jacqui

Thrown Form

In addition to AP3D, I am also taking Advanced Ceramics. One of our projects is 4 wheel thrown pots that look the same. That got me to thinking of doing a wheel thrown body form. I got some inspiration from what Lindsay Mayer did last year. I, of course, do not want to copy her project, but just take the idea and make it my own. Love you Linds!

But What Happens Next???

So I am working on some more of the figures that I've been making throughout the entire year. I am making little ones and I am making a BUNCH of them! Kind of like my own little army.
Now I need to start branching out and trying out different forms of the body. Any suggestions?
