For my most recent project I have been working on a teapot set with two teacups and one teapot. I used artists research for this project because I had to find out the type of shape I was going to make the pots so they would look good with the flower embellishment I was going to add. I made a stencil for my teacups and tea pot, but when I began shaping my pot with coils the stencil shape was too wide for the shape I had in my mind. I used artists solve problems once I got to this point because I had to start over and create the teacups diameter much smaller so when I added the flower design it would look good. After some trial and error, I shaped the teacup how I wanted it and added the flowers. I didn’t exactly know what types of flowers to create and roses turned out the best when I added them to the cup. I am going to create two cups so for the next teacup I might make some type of daisy’s.
