Hand Built Add On #1

For this semester, I knew I wanted to create a surfboard. I had seen ceramic surfboards before, and I thought it was very cool. Considering that I live by the beach, I thought this would be a perfect ceramic peice. I constructed the surfboard by rolling a slab for the body, and three small triangles, as support. As for coloring, I wanted the surfboard to look as if it was the sand and beach. I used to different element paints to complete this. I think it is safe to say thst some element paints are unpredictable when it comes to glazing, but the overall color scheme was shown. For both my add ons, I had a beach theme. I I cooperated starfish, seashells, sea glass, and even real sand from Pacifica. I think my surfboard belongs in the ocean! (:
