Description: I mainly used slab to create this piece. I first started by rolling out a piece if clay. Then I cut 6 petals out of it. I then coiled a piece of clay for the bottom and rolled out a ball for the center. I slip and scored the petals onto the coil and tolted them upwards. The I smoothed out the back and sliped it into a smooth finish. I finished the piece by adding the ball in the center. I glazed the piece ombre. It just didn't come out that well. I used red in the middle of the petals. Victorian red at the ends and on the back and burgundy near the center. Charcoal grey was lightly placed in the center. I only used glazes for this piece.
Analyzation: I used shape with the petals. As well as another main property I used was color. The bright red was one of the main things I tried to capture. The flower is proportional and the piece is quite balanced.
Interpretation: This was a representation of the Georgia O' Keefe painting. I captured the flower as well as the bright red tones she used in her painting.
Judgement: I like the piece itself I just wish I hadn't used the burgundy in the center because it didn't come out that good. If I were to re-create it I would use all the same shape of red and smooth out the center more.
