Theme Statement
This years theme for me was animals and mugs. I decided to make a total of 12
mugs with all different animals on all of them. I did different sizes and
shapes for each and everyone and also with different elements to fit the persons likes or interest's.

Outline
My theme was mugs with animals on them with unique handles. I made 12 mugs in
sets of three that wrap around on each one. I left all the animals with out any
color except for an outline of black. I left them all with different and unique
handles. I made a lot of other projects all for other people that had nothing to
do with my theme but they added to my blog. I started by making mugs with
different pictures on them for other people and I made an elephant mug for my
stepsister for Christmas. That's what gave me the idea to make a big set. I sat
down one day and threw a total of 11 mugs and the next day I made 11 handles
with the help of Ms Heidamin. Also the next day I attached all the handles. I
stayed after everyday to finish all these. I then bagged them and one by one I
carved and stained each mug which still took weeks. But now I have a set of 11
and still have to make one more mug to complete it but I'm almost done.
VI Why: Because of how much this class means to me and the
opportunity that it gave me to open up and learn to do so much stuff I thought I
wasn't capable of, I decided to make a set of mugs to keep with me for the rest
of my life and to take with me to college when I get my own place. Not only did
these take me a long time but I worked so hard on them, and because of that they
mean so much to me. This year was amazing it broadened my horizons to new arts.
Ms. Heidamin I love you so much for always being there for me to talk to when I
needed it, and for teaching me so much. Your not just an amazing teacher but
your an amazing person as well.:)
