Description
This final assignment for my handbuilding class was to make a tea set. I got my inspiration from a brontosaurus and her eggs. The teapot itself is made from hard slab and soft slab construction. i threw the cream/sugar duo functional pot on the wheel as well as the two cups. i altered all forms by adding soft clay to the bottoms to create the feet. all in all i am very pleased with the outcome, but i still dont think of myself as a contemporary ceramicist. in fact, i am attracted to this because i love dinosaurs, everything else is a little too modern for me :-\ earthenware cone 04. commercial glazes.
