New bracelets and hemp necklace


     Same spiral bracelets, but I'm starting to get loads better at picking colours for them. The hemp necklace was a little something that I tried out, found the pendant sets in a clearance bin. Instead of messing with resin, they came with a clear adhesive rectangle to stick over the design, so I just did some watercolours and cut it to fit inside.

Cranky Octopus Box


This lil' guy is made from Sculpey, and his suction cups glow in the dark :)


Time Bottle



Altered Magic the Gathering Cards


First of all, I'm not the original artist. The original art is about a 2 x 2.5" rectangle, so the original art for the Kemuri-Onna encompases the girl, the wind, the trees... All that I did was paint the borders to extend the art to the whole card. 






Spiral Bracelets


     Made from fishing line and seed beads.

AP Pottery Concentration - Machinery Inspired Functional Pots

     
     AP Portfolios have 3 sections, breadth (how much different stuff you can make), quality (how good you can make stuff), and concentration (how you can focus on an idea and represent that in a series of related works).

Octo Bottles at the Carnegie Clay Place


     My bottles took 2nd place, for the Pittsburgh Suburban Area High School show. I was expecting it to be... more like a high school show... so something like fold-out tables, plastic table cloths, etc. You know what I mean. But the whole event was really awesome :) Even though I didn't have time to go on their facilities tour, I still got to meet a lot of really cool people. It's definitely one of my favourite pieces from this year too :)

Octo Pots and Pendants


     Octopus stuffs!! The bottom picture, with the heart bottle, was one of my earliest ones. And then I went from octopots, to octopendants, because I think octopuses are one of the most fun things to make :)

     One of my friends bought this from me at Arts Alive :) She was so excited that she asked to reserve it at the beginning of the night.
