A Quiet Street

I find a lot of peace with the winter season and any scenes affiliated with it. This time of the year is a time of reflection for me and it brings a lot of nostalgia of past winters and what they brought me and how that effected me and my choices in the next year. I was making what my ceramics teacher calls a “choice project” where anyone in the class can create anything they want aside from the assignments. With the winter break coming up I decided to emulate a place I’ve been before on the side of a clay mug but in a cartoonish glaze painting of trees in the snow on the outside and a dark sparkly glaze on the inside. I also included an indented curly slanted c shaped handle on the side. Although not realistic this piece brings a reminder of the thoughts and peace shared with this location.

Exploring and expressing my own creativity through art impacts my life greatly because it allows me to relieve my stress from really hard days at school or at home. I like to use my creativity to create places or people that I wish I could be or surrounded by through many mediums.
