I have decided that my concentration will center around creating projects inspired by the natural world, that included an organic feel and look. I will focus on using various ceramic techniques to throw and hand make projects that not only feel prim and polished, but are unique and individual and reminiscent of shapes found in nature: fruits, leaves, water, dirt, etc. I picked organic form as my concentration because I feel that taking ceramics so many times has forced me to try to make perfect renditions of projects, and although they still look nice, they tend to lose all sense of meaning and commentary which is the point of artwork. Instead of perfection, which I view as part of the man made world, I want projects with feeling and emotion, which I view as part of nature.
