For Abby

Abby wants to experiment with different textures and different materials on the surface of clay. She is thinking of making abstract forms as a base, and then using paper such as music sheets or pages from a novel, to decorate the surface. She really likes water color, but since that is hard to do on clay, she is using this paper, wetting it, and then pasting it to the clay surface. Her ideas for the form were a hand, a vase, or bowl. I really like the idea of having text outside the form. I think it would be really cool if the text was something that meant a lot to her, and spoke perhaps of who she is. I really like the idea of the hand also. Or perhaps making a huge sphere and putting newspapers or novel pages around that. I'm really excited to see what she comes up with :)
