I did these drawings as inspiration for our ceramics module. I like the dried leaf one the most, because it looks the most realistic out of all the pencil drawings I did. There was close observation in my works as I had many small details drawn. However, I thought the tones that I used were rather limited so it looked rather similar and boring. I could have maximised the tonal range and made it look more realistic! I also thought I had good proportions in these drawings :-)
This is my final ceramics work:
As you can see, I've used the shapes/patterns of the leaves/flowers I drew on the surface of the pot.
I've also made textures similar to the leaves/barks on the pot! I also oxidised the leaf parts because it's green, so it'll look like the leaves. I like how one of the long leaf pops out!
A random wooden stick I made :s
Random wooden stick in the pot. The inner surface is smooth and the whole pot is glazed.
I think through this work, I was able to explore more on different textures, and I was more experienced because we had done a ceramics work before. You can see my first ceramics work here. I am happy with how my work turned out to be, and it didnt really crack in the kiln! I also like how I combined all the textures and patterns onto the pot, making it look interesting. I realised my works are always pretty simple with a few important elements in it.
