After finishing the firing of my piece I got it back and decided not to glaze it. Instead of glaze I decided to paint my piece with acrylic paint to make it more colorful. By using glaze ware but not glaze my piece got a bit of shine but I could still use lots of color. When the piece was finished it was all hardened and sealed to bring all the color and clay finally together. This happened right after I fired my piece for the last time and all my color and shine came together when fired. I thought my piece was very successful in its colors and the design on the piece. The red and yellow colors that I picked to go together looked very vibrant and beautiful. I wanted be piece to be bright and yellow on the sunshine part but darker on all other parts to compliment it. I thought the design I chose worked really well with these colors so all around that is why I believe my piece was successful. If I were to do this project again I think the main thing I would do is make my box another shape. I thought the box would be the best for me but looking at my project now I think it would've looked better rounder. Mimicking the sun with a round shape would have looked better as well as adding a sun on the lid as a handle.
