This is my planter, which I have made on the wheel. It is 4 1/2 inches wide and 2 1/2 inches tall; utilizes clear, turquoise, and green glaze; and is mostly smooth textured. In this project, I learned how to use cement to repair cracks in bisqued projects. An art element present in this is form, as it has both a cylinder shape and a plate shape. A design element present in this is emphasis, as the shallow bowl on the bottom of the planter beings attention to the taller, smaller cylinder at the top half of the planter. I intended for this to convey a utilitarian feeling as something that could be put to use because if the size of it is too small to hold a plant, it should at least be large enough to hold small everyday items.
