Final Assignment
Final Assignment in Advanced Ceramics:
Create a TicTacToe Box that entails a usable TicTacToe Board as a lid.
You must create a theme that somehow resembles you in one way or another.
It needs to be a minimum of 6 inches long and 4 inches high.
You need to show me that you can do engravings and add things on the outside of the clay that are sticking out.
The box can NOT be square.
The lid can not be only flat, things need to be coming up off of it.
The shape of the box can not be a symbol like a star or heart.
Be creative and have fun with it. This is your last graded assignment. You need to turn in a drawing of what you are doing by the beginning of class on Monday January 13th and the creation must be made by Friday January 17th.
So if you have any unfinished projects you will have to come in outside of class to finish them. It is crunch time.

Welcome!
First Lesson:


1. Be creative-show me uniqueness-nothing I have ever seen before.
2. Each object should be able to stand on it’s own to represent your object, but also be able to stand together in a group to show a series-they should not be too similar
3. I want to see you use your imagination and come up with these ideas based off of inspiration of something you find beautiful in nature.

Autobiographical Piece
Create an autobiographical piece that somehow represents who you are.
It should entales 3 different components:
1. an image that somehow reflects an important part about you
a. Choose 5 different elements that represent you, your personality and the things you like
b. Then sketch out in your sketchbooks how you are going to create it.
c. Think about a unique shape-nothing traditional-you need to think outside of the box
d. This can not be an image you find on the internet-you should fully come up with this
idea on your own.
2. Be sure to include small details throughout your piece.
3. This should be on a larger scale-not too small.
