My BFA critique was Monday. I think it went really well. I got some really good advice to think about, but also some suggestions I am not too keen on. I was nervous for no reason, really. It actually felt pretty good. I was not nervous at all when speaking. It was all in the anticipation. I was so happy when it was over. Nobody had any harsh comments, which was a relief.
I did a lot of glazing this week. I glazed four lidded vessels, my pitcher and basin, two combination vessels, my heart sculpture, brain lamp, and screened self-portrait. I love glazing. I love the element of surprise involved. It is such a bummer that the motor on the gas kiln went out. I had two pieces in there. I hope we have enough time to get everything fired now. I left a lot of space showing on my lidded vessels I glazed. I'm hoping the brown stoneware color looks nice with the glaze colors I selected. I am super excited to see the way my stacked orb sculpture turns out. I think it's going to be cool. I am worried about it running though. Everything I have used Jeff Long Beach blue on has run, but I really like the way it looks. And I love mixing colors.
I helped Pako paint his walls in the gallery tonight. I am so tired I can't think straight. I have to work in the morning.
