Ceramics 1 -- Narrative



























Our assignment was to do a narrative. I chose "Goldilocks and the Three Bears" and represented three scenes. It was a lot of fun. Some other students had no idea what I was doing, but others picked it up right away. I'll do more of this. In the kiln the three pieces were side by side on the same shelf. Notice how differently they came out. This is one of the interesting and wonderful (and frustrating) things about ceramics. Here are the details:
