My Inspiration

Now, I know that this post is going to sound super lame because everyone says this, but the only inspiration that comes to mind for me is music. I don't even mean a specific genre of music, if I feel a song then I feel it, doesn't even matter if it by J. Biebs or T. Swizzle. TLC even inspires me; with No Scrubs, Waterfalls, and more. As I'm writing this I'm listening to My Friends Over You by New Found Glory, pretty inspiring song, if I say so myself. Whenever I hear a song and it can be related to a certain thing that I'm going through then I'll attach myself to it. During that moment of my life I may listen to this song on repeat all day long, or just come back to it whenever I need. By doing this it sort of creates a bittersweet memory system, when I listen to a song that I've attached myself to in the past I feel what I felt at that time, and maybe I'll even feel nostalgic. I think that's my favorite part about music, even though I haven't took the time to learn an instrument myself, I still feel attached to it.

More often than not I go for a video game related project over a music related one though, only because if I were to make a music one it would probably end up being a lame band logo. I had actually made an attempt at the band Pvris' logo, but that ended up becoming a Pac-Man pumpkin. Because why not? I'll definitely end up making a band related ceramics piece, I always end up finding a way to add them to my projects.

Things Could Be Worse

I'm the type of person who is always browsing for that perfect mug to add to my collection. These mugs that have been created by the artist Don Moyer are not only funny but they have a great meaning as well. I'm just one of those people who love making a joke out of things while also being able to look on the bright side. This mug does that exact thing, by saying even if you're having an awful day, any of the scenes depicted on this mug could be happening, but it isn't.

Mario Brick Block

This one is only in process of being completed, but I was very upset when my question block didn't turn out the way that I had wanted it to. I wanted to have a created handle on the top, but I had no clue what to do. I just added a boo and prayed it turned out all, hopefully I'll be able to make it actually look like boo with the glaze.

Alien Pinch Pot

Now this one turned out okay, the only issue with this is that it's sort of plain other than the eyes that are put on one side of it. I had originally meant for this to be a backup for the cacti pinch pot that I had thought I lost, clearly didn't actually lose it.

My Cacti Pinch Pot

This one had honestly turned out better than I had expected it, after the last one I was pretty impressed. I spent a lot more time glazing it then I had on the last one because I saw a lot of white spots on that one. 

Glaze It 101

This was one of the first pinch pots that I have ever made. I'd like to say that I'm proud of it, but ehhhhhh... The more evident issue with it is the fact that it is horribly glazed, but it was my first time glazing, so that's that excuse.
