My artwork looks like someone with their head on their knees with their arms wrapped around them sitting on their bottom. It is all black with different mean words written all over the figure. I got my inspiration on how to shape it when I looked up, "person with head on knees" My artwork is made of white clay. I used sgraffito as a technique to make the words. It is glazed in black underglaze and clear glaze. What inspired me to make this artwork were my feelings/emotions. I tried to show how someone can feel from time to time. Especially throughout this rough year. It has been hard for a lot of people and many struggle with mental health. I wanted to show how some people feel about themselves when they are feeling down. I don't know if I would want this artwork anywhere large scale. I like it small scale, it could maybe be in a therapist room or something. My goal as an artist is to learn new things and make the best art I am capable of. I feel like this reached my goal somewhat because I never made a person like that before. It was something new and different that I learned. When creating this artwork I learned how to make a person. The final piece is how I imagined it would turn out. Besides the mistake I made when craving out one of the words. This piece will influence future art works because now I know I can make things that I didn't think I could. This experience will help me get out of my comfort zone when thinking of new art works.
