For my cup sketches, I decided to make a blueberry, a Taurus/bull cup, and a cup that looks like it has drips.
This is the final result for my Taurus cup. I used black over red fire brick, and realized I should have let the horns have black over them also or gone over them with another coat. I rolled a slab and wrapped it around a tube to get it's shape and pulled the handle, along with making the horns.
This is my blueberry cup and I'm very satisfied with it. I added 4 leaves instead of just 2 and decided to put a little worm perched on it. I used the pinch pot method. I carved the leaves and coiled the little worm.
For my last cup, I rolled a slab and used a small tube as the shape. I then went through and cut out strips of clay from leftover slab that resembled drips. I kinda realized that maybe I should have used different colors.
