Semester 2 2009 Reflection/ Review

The Medium is the material the art is made from.

Greenware is unfired clay. It is often grey and soft.

Craftmanship is the quality of a piece of art.

Relief printing is where the image is stamped on the medium.

A weaving loom interlaces threads to make cloth.

Warp threads are parallel threads in a weaving that are perpendicular to the weft threads.

Ceramic Coils are used to build larger rounded clay structures.

Plagarism is the purposful duplication of art, also known as art theft.

Vanishing point is a point in perspective drawing where leading lines dissapear into.

Monotype is a type of printmaking where the image is pressed into the ink already on the paper.

2. H.R. Giger is an artist that inspires me. I like his macabre style, and overwhelming attention to details.
3. There should be three coats of glaze applied to ceramics.
4. The initials should be written in the bottom right of a print.
5. I like how my ceramics project actually came out this year. It was my biggest success, although it was also a failure since it exploded in the kiln.
