For my hand and wheel project I decided to make a casserole dish. It is oval shaped with little handles on each side with a nice dark green glaze. For this project I actually threw a round base on the wheel all the way to the base of the bat and then after it dried a little I whomped it into an oval shape and added an attached slab bottom. I really emphasized shape and form when making my project because I wanted the overall appearance of the casserole to be something that would look somewhat professional... or at least that was my hope. I also made sure the scale of the finished dish was proportionate all around, so I had to make sure the handles were the right size. In addition I focused on balance with adding handles so the project seemed complete. When it came time to glaze my casserole dish I went with a dark green with shadow green on top. I love how you can see the spots where the shadow green dripped past the green underneath it as it gives a unique contrast between the two colors. All in all this project turned out to be a disappointment because I had a certain vision for how I wanted it to turn out but I wasn't able to create that because I was pressed on time... I'm pretty upset with how it looks but it was a fun experience to do something different and play around with ways you can make different projects.
