This is my final project; the last thing I will ever make in this class. It resembles my original vision beautifully and is tantamount to what I find beautiful. I first envisioned a collection of sinuous rooots the lead up to a large trunk. As in the picture, it in fact became realized. A nascent discovery of mine is that one should use imperfections to their advantage. I realized this during the creation of the trunk, and it allowed me to make it look much more realistic. It was probably the hardest part. I am very sad it never made it to its final firing. It was on the shelf, but it was too big to fit in the last round of the kiln. I did quite a bit of work glazing it, and I mixed colors to create an earthy sap that is dripping down it. Even if not realistic, the sap is a very cool touch in my opinion.
