Class Collaboration


Description: I started with a piece of clay. I then rolled it into a slab. I then traced my section of the map and put it on my slab. I used it as a stencil and cut the division. I then added mountains to the land side by sip and scoring balls onto it and smoothing them out. I then used a wooden tool to make the the water. Then I smoothed the entire thing out. i first used peacock glaze then placed medium blue in the crevices to give a deeper look. I then used cotton glaze to accent the waves and show that it is the top of the water. On the antartica side I used iceberg glaze then I used cotton to add some lighter parts and grey glaze to show the dark parts.

Analysis: I used movement with the water so it looks like it is flowing. I used proportion because its even on both sides. I also used emphsis on the border so you can tell between the mountains and water.

Interpretation: I made this piece to be as close to a real map as possible.

Judgement: I really like how it turned out. I just wish I added a few more mountains to the land side. I also, wish I made it more flat so it wasn't as curved at the bottom.
