3.4 Monitor Own Creative Activity
3.1: In Artefacts on 3.1 I have created a PowerPoint on what Artefact is. I have included different types of Artefacts and how and when they were used for different creative and Media things e.g. Logos and Props for Theatres. I think what I have done well is I put in lots of different and interesting information in the slides, but what I could have done better is to make it look more colourful.
3.1: I have also created a Document on the impact of technology on Artefacts e.g. things that were once made by hand now made by machine. I have made a table including a positive side and negative. I think that I have done my layout well but I could improve by putting more information on the table.
3.2: 3.2 was on Grayson Perry so I done my research on Google and have created a Document about his work and how he textures his pots and what he uses to do it. I have done my research well and layout but I can improve by making the Document look more colourful as it is quite plane.
3.3: In 3.3 I have made Clay Pots, Cardboard Buildings, Paintings and Costumes. I have done all of the artefacts well as I have put a lot of time making them look creative and nice. I could have improved on the building by making them look more effective by putting more details on the buildings.

19th November: Investigating Artefact's (PowerPoint)
Today I have been searching on the Internet about what an artefact is, and what artefacts are used for, what creative and media industries use them and for what reasons.
I made notes on the research that I have found, but it was quite hard getting all the information I needed in one lesson, but I managed to do it.
At the end I finally knew what an Artefact was and what it involves.
My strong point was not giving up on finding the information I needed, and my weakness was I could have saved all what I found out by making notes or saving on a USB.
1st December: Investigating Artefacts (PowerPoint)
I got all my notes together and started on my presentation on a PowerPoint.
I got all my notes together and started on my presentation on a PowerPoint.
I started on my first slide about what a artefact is- Artefact is a man made object, and my second slide on what type of creative and media industry’s might use artefacts, which I then searched for Theatres, Galleries and museums.
My PowerPoint is simple and clear, I could improve by changing the colours of the background so a Sharpe colour to catch the audience’s eyes.
My strength in this lesson was starting the PowerPoint nearly finishing it with all the information that is necessary. But my weakness was presenting it with the colours so I will work on that next lesson, as I didn’t have much time to do it in.
3rd December: Investigating Artefacts (PowerPoint)
Today was the last lesson on the PowerPoint so I completed the whole PowerPoint. I added three more slides of information on artefacts.
Today was the last lesson on the PowerPoint so I completed the whole PowerPoint. I added three more slides of information on artefacts.
I also added colour and pictures to my presentation as I said I would last lesson because that was my weak point, it now looks much better.
I think I could have improved on it by adding more information if I had more time, but it has useful clear information about different types of artefacts.
My strength in this lesson was improving my PowerPoint on the colour and pictures as it was a weakness the last lesson. My weakness was not putting a lot of information; I only put the information that was needed, which I should have added a little bit more.
10th December: Investigating Grayson Perry
Grayson Perry is an amazing artist, he works closely to clay pots, and I searched for some background information and found out that Perry took an interest in Greek pottery, which looks amazing on his pots.

I have found out lots of information on Perry, even information that is not useful, but I should have made more notes, as I kept the information that is needed in my head and not on paper.
My strength in this lesson was looking for information on Grayson Perry in Depth: family life, what he was like when he was a kid etc.
My weakness was not writing notes, which I should have done as I could have forgotten what I researched, so next time I will write notes.
15th December: Making clay tile
Making the clay tiles was fun, we experimented different textures and shapes to see what looked good and what didn’t.
Making the clay tiles was fun, we experimented different textures and shapes to see what looked good and what didn’t.
We got our ideas from the play ground as we found leafs, twigs and different surfaces like smooth and ruff, we then got paper and crayons and coloured it in to see the different effects.
My strength in this lesson was finding lots and different objects for different patterns and moulding it onto the clay tiles.
My weakness was making the pattern exactly the same on the clay tile but it was good experimenting.
17th December: Making plan for clay pot
Our teacher gave us a work sheet to plan on, I decided to make my pot body round with a twisty top, but the top open so I put things inside the pot, and use my identity as a design.

Also in my plan I discussed what materials I would need and how I would organize my workspace to make the space I am working in safe. I have done the plan well as it has all the information I need for making my pot.
My strength in this lesson was thinking and writing about the work area to make it a safer place.
My weakness was taking more than enough time picking what pot to choose from the plans I have drawn, when I could have been doing more work.

7th January: Making sample pot
This lesson I have successfully made my sample pot using my plan as guidance.
It has only taking me one lesson to complete the pot as the clay would have dried out if I waited till net lesson, even though I had a set time to do the Clay pot I have finished the shape and the smoothing of the sides.

After we finished our pots they was placed into the Kiln to harden, the plan was very useful to use, as I knew exactly what to do and went straight for it.
My strength in this lesson was completing the pot in only 100 minutes in a good standard.
My weakness in the lesson was not paying attention to the base of my pot, but during the last 30 minutes I had time to fix my mistake of making it to thin.

12th January: Completing clay pot experiments
I have designed the out side of the pot to day using a black pen, tracing paper, and PVA glue, my idea was to design it about my identity which I have done using pictures and words to describe my character e.g. things I like.
I have designed the out side of the pot to day using a black pen, tracing paper, and PVA glue, my idea was to design it about my identity which I have done using pictures and words to describe my character e.g. things I like.
I have done this by using images I have found or drawn myself and traced over it with the black pen; using the PVA glue I stuck the tracing paper on my sample pot.
I then took pictures of the pot when it was finished, as you will see on one of the pages in my artefact folder.

14th January: Investigating Michael Raedecker, Planning painting
I searched background information on Michael Raedecker and found out his solo exhibitions for his work.
I also searched information on his paintings and saved it as it could help later on in the investigation.
I started my plan for the painting that I have chosen, I have chosen apiece called ‘Prop’ which Michael made in 1998, this paint became very famous as it is a painting of a tree that is held up by string.
My strengths in this lesson was researching on the painting, I learnt what made him paint something like that etc.
My weakness in this lesson is to keep the most valuable information and sort it out as it look confusing at the moment.

I have started and finished my painting in this lesson.
I have started and finished my painting in this lesson.
I used different blends of colours, but mostly bland colours, which is on the original famous painting, which is where I got my idea.
I think I could have improved on painting the strings; I should have made them a bit thinner so they look delicate.
My strengths in the lesson were completing the painting from Michaels work.
My weakness was getting the right paint brush so I can paint the strings more thin so looks more like the painting that Michael done.

26th January: Investigating Wafa Hourani
Investigating Wafa Hourani was interesting as his art is very unique and different.
Although there wasn’t as much information on Wafa that I wanted I still managed to get some information that you will see in my artefacts folder.
My strength in this lesson was trying to get more information on Wafa even though he is quite unknown there is hardly any but I didn’t give up.
My weakness in this lesson was that I should have used different sites to get different information on Wafa; I just used Google so I have no that much information that I would like.

29th January: Developing building
My group and me decided to go for a colour theme as well as an object sort of theme to build a city of shops.
Today we started of by making the base for our building project, we got a big cardboard to be used as our base and we then marked where the road and shops are going to be placed.
We also started planning what colours we are going to use for the base and buildings; we decided bright luminous colours would look good.
My strength in this lesson was giving lots of advice and contributions towards the whole planning.
My weakness in this lesson was taking over the group a little bit as I had a lot to say.

4th February: Developing building
Following from last lesson our group started cutting and sticking cardboard together to make our buildings.
We managed to do most of the buildings but we decided to leave the rest for next lesson, as we wouldn’t have time to pack away.
Our group really worked well together this lesson as we were all helping each other on our separate jobs that we had to complete.
My strength in this lesson was working as a group today as we all helped each other to complete what was needed.
My weakness was helping everyone else that I didn’t have time to do my own work, but as I work fast I managed to catch up.

We finally finished sticking our cardboard buildings together and then placed them on the base that our group created.
We finally finished sticking our cardboard buildings together and then placed them on the base that our group created.
We all painted our buildings in bright colours, which I think went really well as it stands out a lot.
Painting was quite hard surprisingly as you have to doubled cote it all to get a bold effect.
My strength in this lesson was same as last weeks, working as a team; I am surprised at my self because I prefer working on my own as I only really use my own ideas.
My weakness in this lesson was taking to long to realise that I needed more cotes on the buildings.

11th February: Developing building
Today was the last day of completing everything, so my group and me done a quick paint job the cardboard to make it stand out even more.
We then took pictures on the camera, which is in the artefact folder and blog.
This was the hardest project so far as it was very challenging, but it did improve my teamwork skills.
My strength was quick thinking as I fought it would be better if I added extra paint to my work and it was a good idea.
My weakness in this lesson was I should have spent more time painting as I was rushing it to get more time to do the rest of the activities.

25th February: Investigating Costumes
I enjoyed investigating costumes as I love cloths, but it was very interesting that Elizabeth Lecourt uses maps to create her dresses.
I searched different cloths that she had made and also background information, i found out that Lecourts stronger point is creating dresses.
My strength in this lesson is enjoying to search, as i think learning is easier if you enjoy it and take part, i did this and got the information that i needed.
My weakness in this lesson was i was searching other artists as well as Elizabeth, if i didn't i could have had more time to search what colours she prefers on her work.

16th March: Developing costumes
I decided to do a tight fit on the top half of the dress i am creating and finally spreads out when the dress goes towards the bottom half.
I started and finished my dress in this lesson and it turned out to look amazing, i added a purple colour to the dress to make it stand out more and to make it look more effective.
I could have improved by painting on a belt, but i did not have much time to do so.

18th March: Developing Final Ideas
Today we recaped on all of the artefact work we have done, Clay pots, Buildings, Painting, Costume, we recaped all the things that was needed to create these artefacts.
I got all my information together and decided what final artefact i was choose, so i got all the evaluation sheets i have filled in and decided to work with Clay Pots.
My strength in this lesson is i choose an artefact by the evaluation sheets and not from what looks good or bad.
My weakness in this lesson is didnt do much work, which i could have caught up on a few worksheets.
25th March: Making final artefact
Today we choose are final artefact to do, i chose to do a big clay pot as i really enjoyed making and decorating the artefact.
I started planning about how to create the my big clay pot and what shape the pot will be, what size will the pot be, how much clay would i need etc.
My strength in this lesson was thinking about all the different planning to do including health and safety so everything will be safe and clear.
My weakness in this lesson was me finding it difficult to pick what shape i wanted my pot to be i couldn't decided, but in the end i had to as i was running out of time.
30th March: Making Final Artefact
Today i was making my big clay pot for my finally artefcat, i manged to complete it as i stayed at break time for 20 extra mins.
It was more difficult to what i expected because it was alot bigger than the first clay pot than i done earlier in artefact.
My strength in this was i adapted to the change of the size of the pot, i didn't give up even though it was difficult to make.
My weakness in lesson was getting the thickness right on the pot to put in the kiln, if its to thick or to thin it is no good.

1st April: Making final artefact
Today i was getting materials together for next lesson to decorate my big pot, at the moment the pot is still in the kiln so it will be ready by next lesson.
I was also searching on google to get more designs and picture that i can trace and put on my pot
My strength in this lesson was finding different colours and pictures to experiment on what looks good and what doesn't.
I didn't really have a weakness in this lesson as there wasn't anything i was that bad of as i was just searching, looking and experimenting.
22nd April:completing artefact
Today i have been decorating my big clay pot, it does take longer as the other clay pot that i done was alot smaller.
I worked well and was getting into just concentrating on my work.
My strength in this lesson was completing as much as i could with out getting distracted all lesson, i got straight into decorating my pot.
My weakness in this lesson was not finishing the but but it was really big so my target is to finish it next lesson.
27th April: Completing any work
I have finally finished decorating the big clay pot as it was my target to finish it last lesson.
it looks amazing as i added a bit of paint aswel as the tracing paper that has images on so it will stand out alot more.
My strength in this lesson was i reached my target to finish the whole pot.
My weakness was putting a bit to much paint on my big pot but it was okay in the end as i sorted it out.
29th April: Developing and refining work
Today i looked back on my work and evaluated the big clay pot, i also caught up on anything that i missed as i had time to.
I done some finishing touches on my big clay pot that only took 5 mins but did make a change to the image.
My strength in this lesson is i have finished all my artefacts work and caught up because i have extra time.

3.2- Health and saftey with Clay
Modelling Knives
- Modelling Knives are the most health and safety risk with clay, as they are very Sharpe so picking up new blades from a flat surface is a good way to cut your fingers: so keep blades on a magnetic strip.
- Don't cut clay on any wooden surface: cutting may release tiny silvers if wood. Although these should burn away during firing, they will leave holes in the clay and may cause cracks.
Kiln
- When looking into a hot kiln, you must protect your eyes as one minor incident could ruin your sight
- Also use heat resistant gloves as heat blisters are painful and could take a long time to heal.
- It is always a good idea to have a fire extinguisher nearby, just in case.
Wet Clay
- Be careful you don't inhale dust or powders from the clay.
- You would properly notice the drying of your hands while handling the clay, you can always wear gloves or simply just use skin cream after washed.
Personal Safety
- Clay dust will cling to your cloths, so is best to be washed often if possible.
- Hand could be covered in lead or silica, so foods and drinks should be left out of the environment you are working in with the clay.
- Cuts and open wounds need to be protected with proper bandages.
- Also making clay pots while pregnant is forbidden under any circumstances.
Basic information
- Make sure you have got a clean environment
- Tables and floors washed
- Bend knees while carrying clay, as heavy
- Wear apron
- Were gloves if got a skin condition
- Never eat or drink when you are with clay
3.2 Final Decisions on what artefact i am making
I have done different Creative and Media artwork in artefact's for 3.1, and experimented with different things such as clay pots, buildings, paintings and costumes.
I have been organised by planning everything i have done on my ideas for the artefact's i made.
Used lots of different materials that haven't used before such as:
I have been organised by planning everything i have done on my ideas for the artefact's i made.
Used lots of different materials that haven't used before such as:
- Clay
- Sugar paper
- different paint such as poster paint
- masking tape
- glues
- newspapers
- cardboard
- dangerous equipment, etc.
I enjoyed all of what i have done in artefact's, and am proud of what i produced, but making clay pots was the best for me, as i love moulding shapes and designing it.
the most challenging task in artefact's was making the buildings, as there is much to do be done to get good results.
So i have finally made my decision to focus my project on Clay Pots.
3.2 Artefacts- Elisabeth Lecourt
Elisabeth Lecourt was born in France in 1972, she now works and lives in London at the moment.
She exhibitis her work in New York, Brussels, Madrid, Mexico, London and more.
Lecourts work is very inventive and preety amazing, her work includes makeing maps into art and also cloths wear.
She has lots of work out, and is mainly dresses, which influenced my work as i have made my first dress with newspaper, and my final piece with paper.

He exhibited his first piece of pottery at the 'New Contemporaries' show in 1983
Perry started pottery lessons in 1983
Perry's work refers to several ceramic traditions, including Greek pottery and folk art. But in his work Perry reflects upon his upbringing as a boy, his stepfathers anger and the absence of proper guidance from a male conduct.
Perry has worked in printmaking, drawing, embroidery and other textile work, film and performance.
He has also written a graphic novel.

3.2 Evaluating my pot
Unit 3: Artefact
Evaluating my pot
I shaped my pot o the design I wanted and put it in the kiln for 72 hours; I then picked out designs that represented me, and drew them on tracing paper with a pencil first then with a dark ink pen, stuck the tracing paper on my pot with PVA glue, I then added a few bits of colour so it stands out more an give it an extra effect.
I think my pot meet my standard as it looks amazing and I did put a lot of work into it, its not perfect but it is up to my standard as I did try my best and I turned out looking good.
My work compares to Grayson Perry as it tells a story like mine, it also has different designs and patterns to represent everything that is on the pot.
I could have put more designs on the bottom of the top shape to make it look more effective and neat.
My pot tells a story I wanted it too as it is about me and my life, what I like and where I like, my identity. I wanted every one to see how creative I am by making it look amazing and I think I done it.

My work compares to Grayson Perry as it tells a story like mine, it also has different designs and patterns to represent everything that is on the pot.
I could have put more designs on the bottom of the top shape to make it look more effective and neat.
My pot tells a story I wanted it too as it is about me and my life, what I like and where I like, my identity. I wanted every one to see how creative I am by making it look amazing and I think I done it.
