This is my teams (Logan, Kajai, and I) frankenpot pot. I made the top peice, Logan made the base, and Kajai made the middle connecter piece. Then I attached all of the pieces to each other. After I handed it off to Logan and Kajai who decided to make it interesting by adding holes to it. Then we glazed and it then this is our outcome. I'm very fond of this project because of it shows a lot of character and doesn't look like a regular frankenpot.

My fourth bowl is very similar to my second as it stands 1 1/2 inches tall and 4 inches wide. Its texture is very grainy and it is quite noticeable. The glaze, which was the green and chrome, didn't stay on that well so it's a very see through project meaning you can see the bisqued part still. I learned how using the rib tool can greatly improve the walls of my bowls. This bowl easily shows a grainy texture just from looking at it. I believe the greenish color harmonizes well with its texture because I feel like that texture looks good with that type of color. This bowl is kind of nice in way meaning it looks like I would use this to hold salsa to dip my chips into. That kind of nice.
I have finished my lidded project and I'm not as pleased as I thought it would be. It is 3 inches tall and 4 inches wide. The lid has a very grainy texture while the base peice is very smooth. I glazed the lid in shadow green but it must have been a very thin glaze or watery because it didn't come out very thick. For the cylinder base peice I glazed it all black then painted on white glaze on a side to get the bluish effect it gives off. I learned how to make sure the lid fits into the cylinder or base in order to make this project. The lidded project shows value through its light green and darker blackish colors. This also shows contrast for the same reasons being the two very different colors working together on the same project. I'm not as pleased with this as I was hoping but I still enjoyed making it because it was a challenge for me.
