Artist Statement: When beginning this class, I had little knowledge of how to create and form vessels, and these photos document my growth. If my pre-instruction vessel is compared to my final art, a clear path of growth can be observed. When making this piece, I originally had many coil handles on the edge of the piece, but they fell off while on the shelf. This tells me that I didn't know how to slip and score at the time. I improvised for the photos, and placed the coils around the edge of the piece, to illistrate how the vessel once was.
