Different types of pots im studying

Todays friday February 20th and i don't have any new pictures to post, but i am in the making of creating a heart mug. Once its complete II'm going to glaze it to make it shiny and give it to my mom. In the process of making this mug i have tried to create multiple others, but i just did not finish them. I couldn't get them the way i wanted and i got the idea of making a heart mug which should be interesting. Now on my pot i have to think of a text i want to put on it. Here are some examples of different ceramic artworks that use a rich surface texture. These three pots below have all different surface texture. I think that all of these are very creative and have a good texture to them. I'm planning on making a pot with some sort of swirly texture on the side soon like in the first picture.







Next i am going to show you some examples of pots with text in them which i have to create a pot with a text that resembles me, something that is like my brand name.








These to clay plats both have imprinted text on them. I think the first one is a very clear text to read. The second one is the type of text i am supposed to be doing in class. I still have to think of what my signature text is going to be though.





The next pictures i am going to be posting are examples of ceramic garden art.


The first picture on the bottom left is really cool i think. I wish i could make pots like that one day and put them out in my garden. The middle picture on the bottom has a great variety of different textures, texts, shapes, and sizes i really like this picture. Then the picture on the bottom right also shows a good amount of different texts, pots, and different animals you can make out of clay. These pictures all show a good variety of the things we are learning about this semester in ceramics 2.
