How did you use your own unique ideas in your work?
Yes, At the beginning of this project when Mrs. Rossi was showing us what previous classes had done I saw a lot of pancakes. eggs, and bacon. I didn't what to do anything like that because A LOT of people had done it. Boring. So I ended up doing carmel and candy apples with sprinkles. I had never seen anyone else do it and thought it was would be different. I'm really happy I chose to do them because they turned out really well.
Did your work take an unexpected turn due to a mistake or did something happen that was unplanned?
Yes, When I started painting and glazing I didn't really think the process through. I glazed all over the apple including the sprinkles. Then I let Mrs. Sudkamp glaze it. Then when she took it out and I decided I would paint the sprinkles I realized that I did it in the wrong order. So the sprinkles aren't perfect. If I were to do it again I would still glaze the whole apple but, I would also use glaze on the sprinkles before I put it in the kiln.
When did you step back and analyze you work during this project?
Yes, most of the time when I stood back it was to see if the apple was the shape of a normal apple. I also stood back and realized my first attempt at sprinkles was too big so I went back and did it again but with smaller sprinkles. Which made it turn out a lot better. Lastly, when I was painting the sprinkles I stood back each time after doing a color so I would make sure I wasn't over using a color.
