Artist Statement: Ceramic Paw Prints
My art piece looks like three parts that connect together with a leather string. Subject matter that went into this piece of art would be my rabbit dying last year. What shows the most in this art piece would be bas relief on the paw prints and carrot also shows is the incising on the dates. How I created my piece of art was from my own brain and using the clay to help get what I was thinking on paper to come alive. The tools I used were a loop tool and sponge to soften around the clay and my own hands mostly. What inspired me to make something like this was thinking on what I loved the most and I loved my rabbit the most out of everything. My piece is showing a personal connection and using the bas relief to make the middle pop more. There was a little goal and that goal was to make that piece look good and take my time and fix mistakes if needed and normally I wouldn’t care as much on others but this one I did and I did achieve that goal. The overall thoughts on my artwork I made would be I learned I can make things when I slow down, look at the piece and then fix it then rushing a little and my project came out just how I wanted it to come out and I'm very proud of that. |
