This was the first project I have thrown that had a lid added to it, that being the first lidded project. It surprisingly, with the dark green color, appears as something that would appear in nature do to its imperfect cylinder shape. One new skill I learned during the process of this creation was using calipers to measure the lip of a cylinder in order to make a lid from a much smaller piece of clay. This project has a circular shape in the lid as well as the base, and also a very smooth texture with slight ripples. This texture represents how I am improving or trying to improve in ceramics. I was told that since there are ripples in the base from the originally thrown clay, it shows my inexperience. However, I can use this as a goal to improve and look back to see how I have improved over time.
