ceramics

I'm really liking my ceramics class and this is the first project we did. the project was self portraits and we were supposed to tell something about ourselves with it. it was really open ended but i chose to do a traditional self portrait with the thing i was revealing being more abstract. I haven't worked with clay in a couple of years and i've never done anything like this so i'm happy with the way it turned out. it hasn't been fired yet because it's still drying but i'm just praying it doesn't explode in the kiln.
