Getting Back to What I Know

So I have been exploring some new ideas this semester, and I am getting nervous about whether any of it will turn out. While I am excited about the possibilities of some new directions, and am certainly not done with them, I need good finished work to put in my upcoming show or to enter into shows, etc.

So I am taking a step back and making some work that I know I can get to turn out. I also feel I can knock out work quicker so that I will have enough finished work for the show.

What do you guys think, is this good or bad?

Octo-Anne!

My wonderful studio-mate Anne has been working so hard that she is actually becoming her work! I wonder if it is easier or harder to work in clay with an octopus tentacle? Seriously though, keep up the good work Anne! I hope it will all pay off for you soon.

...and it's still a work in progress.




Here is the pieces piece out of the kiln. Didn't quite work out, but I learned some things. I will have some good work from this vein of thinking before the semester is out.
