Artist Statement
I originally wanted to make the mugs walls out of coils but after realizing that this was going to take to long I switched it up. I decided to make the walls out of curved blocks and the handle out of coils. The elements of design I used were line, and, color(The mug with color will be put on this website after it is done). I was going to leave the lines in from where I had bond the cubes together, but I feared that in doing so it would compromise the structural integrity of the piece. Its purpose is something to drink out of. The culture would be the bars of northern Michigan. I definitely this like this piece and I cannot wait to glaze it. The only problem is that I made the handle to small.
