This is my frankenpot project that I made with Carl. He made the base and middle, and I made the top. Originally, the top was suppose to be small at the bottom and fan out into a lip at the top, but it fit better and has a more unique shape if we used the wider fanned part as the base of the top- so we did. The form is smooth, because the glaze was thick and the pot itself was fairly even. The colors I used were black with a white ring around the top, which dripped in a few places. A new skill I learned through this project was how to make a collaboratory project with someone else, which was a new and fun experience. An art element in this project is contrast because there is a distinct difference between the black and white colors. I think this project gives off the overall feeling of being unique due to its shape, but still clean and polished, as the glaze and overall pot is very uniform. The design element of color emphasizes the top of the pot which draws attention to its shape as a whole, and adds to the unique feeling of it all.
