blog 8 - Ceramic

Hi people!

Today in my blog, I will talk about my ceramic workshop, because I have learned so much this semester there, and I have loved making ceramic pieces. This year I made a wall with small pieces of ceramics that I have painted, in total there were 180 pieces that I painted every week, cooking in the ceramic oven and improving in each piece, it was a big job, which now, once concluded the semester, I can see on foot. I am very happy to see the results of my work and effort. Also, I enjoyed making ceramic masks, which I began to do because I like theater a lot.

I really like the ceramic because it is a job that you start to make from very basic elements, clay, talc, chamote are some of the elements to start making the ceramic paste, then you start to craft what you want and go to the first baking in the oven, that's what you call “to biscuit”. Then, you have to enamel the piece and it goes to the last cooking and that way your make a beautiful piece of ceramic <3 

That's why I've had so much fun in this subject.

I see you later

Blog 7: Camille Claudel

Vertumo and Ponona - Camille Claudel

Hi People!

Today in my blog, I will talk about my favorite artist, she is Camille Claudel. She is a most beautiful sculpture in the all time (for me), she left a work of great talent. her naturalism with features of impressionism and symbolism always sought the drama in sculpture.

Some of her great works are “vertumo and ponona”, in which Roman mythology served as a metaphor for love and deceit that she lived with Rodin. Another work, “the mature age” was created during her separation with Rodin

After separating from Rodin, she fell into a psychotic state and burned a large part of his work.  Recent biographies talk about abuse and manipulation in their environment: she was forced to enter a psychiatric hospital where she died after thirty years of confinement and without creating any work

Camille is very important for me in history, because it shows that it is possible to sculpture the emotion and sensitivity of a person. She also did it with a perfect technique and a great audacity to face the male chauvinist of her time

Blog 6: my nice dog, Duke <3  

Hi people!

Today in my blog, I will talk about my dog, Duke, he´s  adopted from the street. Duke is one years old, still is a puppie, he is also a mixed dog, but i love a duke :3, his is black and white and has the very big ears ^.^  

My favorite memory with duke, is when while I’m sleeping, duke gets closer with his cold and wet nose (sometimes i hate that action) and look at my face with his sweet glance and move his tail (it is very  cute)

another memory with duke now with Magda (my daughter) is when they are playing, and magda placed paint in all  duke’s face … his look is very funny xD

Duke became my favorite pet in the all world, because he is a Magda’s friend, they are playing every day, and duke is so loyal, smarts, jumpi (it is true.. he always jumps e.e, sometimes is freak)     

I do not have  pictures of my pets (you will miss a beautiful dog :P) but in another occasion i share a picture this her
