My first time with clay was both frustrating but satisfying at the same time. For my art show I wanted to focus on an area I was not very good at. That area was cylinders. I didn’t just want to do cylinders but carve and turn the cylinders into Lanterns. I tried to do different designs to make it more eye appealing and attempted to choose colors that blend well. I learned a lot through the making of these lanterns and hopefully next year I will get better and better and make cooler things as I take studio ceramics.
