Lidded Vessel


Artists Develop Art Making Skills
1. I learned a new technique using plaster when I made this lidded vessel.  I had to make a wire shape and cover it in plaster to get the shape right.
2. I think I did gain some skill in using plaster.

Artists Take Risks
1. I did try something that I was unsure about in this project.  I haven't used plaster that much and I was concerned about how I would be able to make the lid out of plaster.
2. I picked plaster over clay which I'm not as familiar with.  I've only used plaster once and I thought it would be cool to make a lidded vessel out of that instead of clay.
