For my vessel project I wanted to do something different and use a unique material to make my piece. I decided to use magazines and roll them up into a circle shape and form a vessel. The biggest challenge during this project was how much time it took to actually roll each piece of magazine because I needed a lot in order to make a vessel shape. I thought the piece turned out well and the shape held up pretty well. The thing I might change in the future is I would not use a balloon to form the vessel because it stuck to the bowl. I formed my vessel so that it was in a shape of a bowl, so it can be used to hold small household objects or a center piece dish for a table. Overall it was fun to use a different material other than clay even though it took a very long time to roll all of those papers.
