Hello everyone!
So I said that I would keep you all up dated on my possible commission for the July bride so here it is! I met with her on Saturday and it went really well! She is a super nice woman and I'm happy to be working with her. She ordered 8 fabric flowers for her hair. We're going materials shopping tomorrow and I will post so me photos of the final project when they're completed. Her wedding is in less than two weeks so that will be pretty soon!
Other than that there's not too much else exciting going on. My classes are winding up quickly. Tuesday is the last day to work in wet clay before the end of the session (they do this so that there is ample time to fire and glaze the projects.) For my final project I'm making a cup and saucer set. I'd never thrown a plate(saucer) before so I ended up making that set twice because my first set were thrown too thinly.
That's all that's new. I finally found the cord that connects my camera to my computer so I'll give you a photo update on what was happening in the last few weeks. (I brought my camera to the ceramics studio to give you a taste of what I've been up to in there but the only photo I was able to take before my battery died was the one of my failed saucers.) I'm also going to add some random photos from my last few weeks abroad.
My mom, my sister and me on my sister's graduation day from Cornell.
People of all ages came to admire the beautiful ceramic work at the Carved Vase Contest at Clayscapes.
A stack of my unfortunate, too-thin saucers.
Me and my Italian family.
At the top of the beautiful cathedral in Milano.
The bluest natural water I've ever seen in Blue Grotto on the Island of Capri.
Cheery umbrellas-also on Capri.
Florence by night.
Until next time,
Gitta
