here's the workshop at the UP college of fine arts. i love the super high ceiling, the big space and all that light that comes in (even on rainy days).
it has a lot of interesting pieces made by the students there. this one caught my eye right away - a fish sculpture from a materials class, made mostly of spoons forks and knives :)
here's my little workspace... where i decided to make a leaf plate patterned after a real leaf i found outside, all by hand-building....
i "pinched" a lotus flower bowl to go on top of it...
and made this little bird by hand, so it could perch on the leaf....
tadah!!! here's my leaf sushi plate, with a lotus flower bowl for the soy sauce, and a little bird where you could rest your chopsticks on :)
i'm leaving it to dry so i can glaze it and fire it in a few weeks :) can't wait for my next class....hmmm.... so many ideas, so little time....
best monday ever. haha!
