Finished Place Setting

                                                                   
                                                                  Finished place setting.
                                         I just finished this place setting last week. It took me about two weeks to completely finish it. Glazing and blending took the longest time and it was kind of difficult, trying to get the right colors on all four pieces. Each piece gradually got better every time I glazed one. I am not really happy about this project, I wish I would have chosen an easier piece of artwork to glaze onto my pieces!

Place Setting.



                                                               A work in progress!
                                           - This is a place setting that I started about 2 weeks ago. We had to pick an artist and imitate a piece of their work on our cups, bowls, and plates. The artist I chose was Georgia O'keefe. She was a western artist that mostly painted barns, sunsets and bones. I choose to paint a sunset on my plate which is probably the hardest painting job I have ever had to do. Making everything blend today was just really sucky and hard to do. I did not like it at all. my favorite piece from my place setting would have to be my bowl! I love the shape of it and how the colors turned out in it!
