I made this ceramic piece last week for a charity event. This is my first time painting pottery. As you can see, I used photographic memory for the PC&L design. Check it out in my photo gallery section to get a larger image of it!
P.S. I had no room to write the entire title out.
[magenta]cozmonite61[/magenta] wrote: Thanks, Burt, for giving my first feedback
My pleasure. You can at least rely on me to be brutally honest.
OK, time for feedback from OTHER NOOLers. Unfortunately, Burt, you are going to see my avatar for a very, very, long time. :D
I might just pop down the local pottery tomorrow meself, and have a go at WFTSC. I'll take a big orange marker pen.
It beats anything I ever managed to do in ceramics class...which, seeing as I've never taken ceramics, isn't saying much :p
But trust me, I suck at artistic endeavors like that (or that's what I've been led to believe by the bourgeois instructors and their "rules" over the years). It's nice, in a "reminds me of a cake" sort of way

What was the charity event?
Kudos to you for taking up a new hobby.
It was for a cancer club in my school. Everyone painted a pottery piece vases, cups, and saucers, etc. I chose this trivet because it has a flat surface; it's good for a beginner to use.

yeah, and the red felt tip is starting to rub off.
i'll give it a measly 0 out of 5.
try Sirens next. Big Orange Felt pen and dough ball.

Not necessarily. I have avatars disabled as a rule. Just had to enable them to see what the fuss was about!
If I've got one obvious complaint, it's that you've stuck a huge PC&L across it. Very un-NewOrderish!

Age is nothing I'm 35 and a totally cack-handed fucker. Better than I coulda done.....and yeah having the name on it was naughty....

JAK, I don't know what your last comment was about, regarding my age. I am 19 if you want to look in my profile. I should address to you and others that painting pottery does not entail felt tip pens. Also, JAK, I am not in an art college; I'm a freshman in one of the best colleges in the US. I just have artistic tendencies, aside from my scientific aptitude. Why don't you go paint your own pottery? Go on, I double dare you! :D
It's wank.
There's a bloke in our office who sticks up all the shitty art that his kids do at school or nursery or whatever they do. Being young is no excuse for shit art.
So I say to you exactly what I say to the guy at work - take it down at once.
It's a ceramic trivet. I can understand where some of you got an image of a pancake, pizza, a flying saucer, etc. But I assure you it's a trivet.

Yeah, right! 
I'm not going to comply a request from a dunce who voted 60 MPH over TPK 
Funny, I get a similar response from my work colleague.
You're just copying everyone else by liking TPK though. It's average, though assisted by a video that's basically porn to the 'the band should appear in the video' sheep.
Baa.

you just like vidoes of blokes dressed up in bear suits being bitten on the arse by a dog. You sure got lucky on the 60mph video mate. What were the chances? 
Woof

60 m-p-h could be in the top 50 videos of all time aces it is. and so is the trivet. kilned glazes are a right thrill.
Not sure about the bear suits though, and I don't generally like videos where the song is interupted. But I like anything to do with kidnap, especially when sexually motivated.

Funny you should say that....I could generally do without the band being anywhere near their video. However, if you ARE going to have them in it, the only valid purpose is to show them performing their composition live. To that end I adore the video for TPK.
Besides...gillian's front panel mixing 
:D:D:D
BIGINOIL wrote: But I like anything to do with kidnap, especially when sexually motivated.
BiginoiL has the Libertine been released over by you. if not and when it does, and if you're inclined do go see it. has Johhny Depp as the count of Rochester and Sam Morton as Elizabeth racing through the country-side in a horse-drawn carriage. he with his fingers in her mouth. E.-... the last time I saw you you I was a virgin heiress and you abducted me much like this. R.-and did you like it. E.- immensely. hha* on the videos nothing can touch the class of Ceremony, or after becoming N O - anything taped on stage from a show.
Burt Reynolds wrote: ^^
what do you mean wtf . Biginoil said that abductions being sexually motivated were especially fun.. soOo. I said that Johnny Depp's recent film The Libertine has him playing the Count of Rochester abducting, sexually even Samantha Morton-as Elizabeth and interesting in that Sam morton will be playing Mrs. Ian Curtis... that's all.

[magenta]cozmonite61[/magenta] wrote: Yeah, I know that it was funny. But Cath, what's wrong with my prized, beloved trivet that I devoted 2 hours crafting? I mean, once I got the completed product from the pottery shop it has been a part of me. Sorry to feel so melodramatic, but I utilized my freedom of expression.:D See, I'm still happy.
freedom of expression is a ceramic replica of an album cover?
Hey, I'm no Peter Saville, but ever since I bought the album, I had the painting stuck in my head. Again, the image that I painted was based on photographic memory since I left the CD at home. I thought that the pottery was better than what I've expected. And like Burt Reynolds, Cath, you will have to prepare yourself to see my craft every time I post something. 
get a grip Cozzie. Some of us have been brought up on good art from Sav's early days. I had the same art teacher as Saville as a kid. But rather than knuckle down and get good at art I just used to stab my mate with my indian ink pen. It was more fun that drawing a sea shell. He used to stab me too for the record.
But, no matter what I didnt learn, you aint no Saville 
But, what do I know? :\ohwell:
I would have made mine a play-doh bust of Anthony H Wilson, then smashed all the pieces in class (including my own) in the name of situationism.
Geez, Hannett, you have been watching 24HPP way too much, especially with the situationism line. I just couldn't believe how crazy it got. Fame kinda sucks for a while.

Hey, why is everyone laughing at the fact that I'm 19 (until Sept.). It's not easy being a college freshman. BTW, I changed my message about not being on this thread anymore.

no one's laughing at the 19.. it's 19+ the attitude.
Someone who went goes to one of the best colleges in the U.S. should know not to end her sentence with a proposition.
;)
nah.. I think you're lovely... just calm down on the "don't take the piss. I may only be 19 but..." garbage.

only harmless fun girl!!
Well, I had a long week and got a little too far on some posts on NOOL. I don't know what to say about my sense of humor. It's strange at times I tell you. But I'm fine now. :D There will be more pottery to come. I have a discount coupon to use for my next NO Pottery Project. Right now, I'm going to take a shower and study some more. 
I'm thinking about majoring in biology. Right now, though, I'm studying literature (mostly British), etymology, Japanese, and geography. I have reports and midterms coming up just before Spring Break.

Well, in that case, maybe you should do the artwork for the next NO album, maybe then it might come out on time, rather than Saville needing gods knows how long to choose the correct shade of orange or whatever...

Nooo.. I'd have to let cozomonite take the lead on this one. She is the master. I'm just a mere 'wannabe', with a knackered mouse.

Jeezus, Burt! What did you use? Frisbee and markers? I like your effort, but it's a bit sloppy. Look at how uneven your fonts are. I recommend you go to your local pottery shop to learn the craft with grace, ceramic paint, glaze, and the good old kiln. :D As a general rule, Burt, the first thing you should do when designing your pottery (or trivet, apparently) is to draw a rough design with a pencil. It's a perfect solution to make sure your font is neat.

Please feel free to avail yourself of the all new 'Who should design the next NO album sleeve' poll... Quite a creative bunch us NOOLers... And, cozmonite, I do like the idea of having a ceramic album sleeve...

You are of course correct, cozmonite. I bow to your superior knowledge in ceramic craftsmanship. Ever thought about just jacking in college and going into pottery production?
No, I haven't thought about that. Art is a hobby of mine, but I want to focus my energy in the science field. Right now, I couldn't stop laughing at your design.

Besides, I'm winning the poll.

I think you should open a gallery exhibit, and put your art up for sale at outrageous prices. And then laugh all the way to the bank.

Now thats one mighty fine idea, Mrs Shampanyov
That's partly where I got my name from, but I don't read the magazine. I like foreign merchandise and traveling. Yet, the only foreign country I've ever been to is Japan. Nippon, woot!
Good news: According to the e-mail I have received today, I will donate my beloved PC&L ceramic trivet to the oncology unit in my university's hospital. I did my art for a good cause. I don't know if anyone in the hospital is a NO fan, but I hope they can understand the roses I've painted on it. Good-bye, PC&L... hope you go to a good home.:)
Oncology is the study of cancer and its treatment. If you read my first thread, I made the trivet with my cancer club group. I'll donate it in tomorrow's meeting.
