Typically, cereal and milk are combined in a bowl with no separation. For my food specific project, I created a ceramic bowl to separate the cereal from the milk to keep it crunchy while it sits in the bowl. I, personally, enjoy my cereal crunchy and not soggy. Soggy cereal has no flavor and is more like oatmeal.
These works were made by wedging two colors of clay together and then creating the vessels on the wheel. After they became leather hard, they were trimmed so the two colors would show, instead of the dark slip overpowering and creating a dark vessel. The top two pictures are my creations while the bottom two are professional pictures.
For this assignment, I used the wheel to create not only the vessel, but the lid as well. To make the lid hollow, I hand trimmed it because it wasn't possible to wheel trim it with such a small top. The lid that i made was a completely covering lid without a flange. This form could hold many different things, including liquids. I don't have a specific use for this vessel.
