3 Wheel Throwing Projects



For my first wheel throwing project, I made a multilayer piece out of clay on the wheel. I glazed it with a light blue glaze. While doing this project, I learned how to make another layer while using the wheel. I think that this project turned out pretty well. I don't think that I did a very good job, in all, on my glazing, at least on making sure that it was all the same shade and everything. 
For my other wheel throwing project, I made a bowl thing with a handle on it. I made this using clay and I ended up having to use some glue to glue the handle on because I didn't get it on on time. I glazed this project with a brown glaze for both the handle and the bowl. For the handle I just kind of made it by flattening it out and then forming it to the right length and form and everything. For this project, I learned how to make the handle and put it on. I think that the bowl part turned out pretty good, but I don't think that the handle turned out very good and I could've done a better job on that. 

For my last wheel throwing project I did a bowl with decoration on the bottom. I used clay, glaze, and some wheel throwing tools for this project. I glazed this bowl with a warm gray color and I used a wheel throwing tool to make the decoration on the bottom of the bowl. This is probably one of my favorite and best projects that I have done all semester. I think that it turned out really well actually. I think that one thing that I could've done better on is making sure that the edges on the bowl were all pretty even. Other than that, I think that it turned out pretty good.
