First post of October!

This week has been important for decision making, narrowing down what direction I want my first project to go in. I've decided to keep my theme perspective, I'm playing with focus and out of focus objects/scenery. 

I want to play with glazes in Ceramics, today I made some tiles using porcelain slip, ready for next week. I'd like to use my findings, playing with pigment/stains and maybe oxides to find interesting colours, and work out what would fall into my theme. I'd like to experiment with coloured slip also and decals, I to create pieces that look almost 3D when focusing on a detailed part of an object.
I'm really wanting to take more risks this year and use my time I have at uni now to play around as the brief says! I want to push myself out of my comfort zone, using slip and becoming familiar with it and using molds,  even make my own eventually.

Hopefully I can post some pictures of my findings or other samples next week, I hope you're all keeping well and feel free to scroll through my older posts! (:
