This is a small cylinder I threw on the wheel. I had to learn how to keep my project centered even after letting go. I would get it centered then would knock it off center every time I went to take my hands away. I had to slow down and become one with the clay. You really CAN'T rush art. I used a dark green color glaze for the cacti and a dark blue glaze for the flowers on them. A clear glaze was used on the entire project. I had to form the clay so that there wouldn't be too much space in the cylinder. I did a cacti pattern on this because I love cacti and it makes me sad that I only have one real one. This project makes me happy because it reminds me that I can always get more plant babies (cacti) in the future. It also reminds me of the dessert because of the light tan color (representing the sand) and the cacti.
