Bird Bear. Buff Clay with Acrylic Paint. 2017. When making this piece, we had to use two different animals and their features to make a whole new animal. I chose to use the body of a bear, wings of a bird, feet and beak of a bird, and I added a scaly tail to add something different to the sculpture. I wanted the piece to look dark but beautiful. I chose to do a dark body so the wings and feet stand out and look colorful and alive. I had this piece in a sitting position to give it a more friendly appearance, instead of a dark scary look. I also painted the eyes the same color as the wings so they would pop away from the dark fur of the body and face.
Sunset. Tempera. 2016. For this painting, I wanted to have contrast with a black tree and a colorful, rainbow like sunset for the background. I wanted the tree to be the main focal point because it represents growth. The reason I had used black tempera paint to make the tree is so the background could show the outline of each branch and just to have a more eye catching appearance.
Bubbles. White Earthenware Clay with Glaze. 2017. To make this bowl, I had used little pieces of clay, rolled them into circles, and pushed them flat to mold them into another bowl. Once I had the inside of the other bowl filled with the clay circles, I waited a day for it to dry then took it out. I wanted to outside to stand out, so to emphasize the circles I chose a blue glaze. I carved a heart on the inside of the bowl and painted it red to add more to the piece.
