Duality Vessels

Duality Vessels- The vessels both had a shapes that faces a certain direction to give the pieces a certain angle of a fish to a mug or bowl. Inspired by the elements and emotions, I gave both pieces a certain dynamic shape that ties into the contrasting emotions. Happiness being associated with warm colors, like a fire with sharp angles, and giving cold colors to sadness, along with softer angles and shapes.
Bird House
Bird House- Using the inspiration of starry and nature themes, I shaped this piece as a flower with the moon in the center, along with the leaves curved out. My idea was a moon blossoming out like a flower, using the petals as a way to collect water and food for the birds. By curving the leaves to give a smooth bend, the dynamics composed it to gather resources dripping down towards the sphere of the moon. The moon itself has starry decorations on top to give the sphere bumps in order for the bird to properly stand on top, preventing it from slipping off.
Nesting Bowls

Nesting Bowls- The bowls' simple structure, along with its color decoration, compliments the wordings on the bowls, forming simple shapes with friendly appeals. Taking the inspiration of the beagle dog breed, I referenced the fur placements of a beagles' body to the bowl. Two brown spots on the front of the head, tailing the black spot on the back. The name of these bowls are in variety of nicknames for "Cooper", a simple name for family dog. Crafting this, I used the slab technique for the bowls' walls and poked clusters of holes on the bowl surface in order to give texture for a dog drinking or eating from it
Houseware Project
Houseware- having the mind set of a commissioning a space theme houseware for a person, made the decoration fall in with the drainage system on the bottom of the jar, along with the top hook being a crescent moon. Following the theme of starry and space themed pieces, I made this piece for a person interested in space related stuff. So for a toothbrush holder, i used a tall slab to make this piece, with a divided set in the jar for two thing. Along with a top with a moon themed grab.
