In preparation for the Cylinder Project, please find and bring in an example of a cylindrical project (from a magazine, online or an actual object) for Friday, September 21st.  

Preferably it should be clay, but if it is not and you are inspired by the shape or design that is ok.  

You should also be able to explain why you chose this example--are you drawn to the shape, size, surface design, etc...

SPIRIT ANIMALS!

These small sculptures should show your ability to create an even, well-formed pinch pot, then slip and score details on the surface.

Choose an animal that represents you for specific reasons, or one that supplements your personality--has qualities you wish you had.

Objectives:
Create a body form using the pinching method, 1/4" walls with no cracks.  The final sculpture should be smooth, compact, well-constructed, fit in your hand, and tell us something about you!
