What do you plan to do with your piece?I plan to add melted glass into the top on the piece, so that it looks like a frog and a pond. I also want to paint the piece. I'm planning on painting the Lilly pad and frog shades of green and the sides of the piece being brown. What things have you found difficult so far?.I think the most difficult part of the project so far has been actually putting the sides together. It's hard to make them straight, and one side of my piece is slightly bigger then the other one What did you find successful so far?So far, the most successful thing was my scoring and slipping. I'm very surprised that some pieces of my piece are still attached, mostly the frog and the lillypad. This proves that they were attached well and correctly. Explain your process up to this pointI started by cutting out my slab of clay and flattening it so that it's useful. Then, I used the exact o knife to cut out my walls, bottom and top. I added them together by scoring and slipping each touching part. Then, I made my frog and it's lillypad and attached it the same way. Once I was done with that, I tried to add some texture to the piece's sides and top. It was then fired in the kiln and I'm waiting to paint it.
