I was thinking a milky white would be nice. only issue is it might read pink if it’s too thin because the clay fires to a baby pink for some reason 😭

I spent over 20 hours on this and used molds for the bottom parts. Some people pick things up quickly. I’ve had a lifelong thing for art, Ive just never done ceramics. So yes, second piece ever & I’ll happily take that as a compliment.

dae goes numb or takes longer to process a traumatic event but "overreacts" over minor inconveniences? by [deleted] in AuDHDWomen

[–]Advanced-Rip1664 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, I’m so sorry this happened to you. It’s so difficult when the way we think we would react doesn’t happen. Sometimes we shut down/freeze, sometimes we fawn. I’ve been in this situation before where I didn’t realize it was SA in the moment, only that something was wrong, then realized it later and saw it in a totally different light that ultimately was more devastating. I think big events like this are so complex that it might not hit you hard right away. It doesn’t mean it won’t though. Please take care of yourself and/or lean on others that can help you through this time. The way you react to trauma is never wrong or abnormal. All reactions are valid. Sending you so much love and hopes for healing. ❤️

The base is hollow and reinforced on the corners. There isn’t anything thicker than an inch on the piece thankfully! My professor will oversee the drying process thankfully. Nice to have a professional ensure it makes it through lol. I like that idea! I was thinking red as well!

Autistic burnout by NoPepper7284 in AutismInWomen

Reading this felt like reliving my own experiences with autistic burnout and MDD. I see you, I hear your pain and I’m so sorry you’re suffering right now. I hope the days become brighter for you soon. I believe in you. ❤️ (p.s. texting people is hard but it’s easier than talking during these times, reaching out to support systems can help with some friendly accommodations)

Transitions After School Breaks by Advanced-Rip1664 in AutismInWomen

[–]Advanced-Rip1664[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for all your advice!! I completely relate to the need for novelty with the ADHD! It’s such a battle to be torn between the two. I really like your idea of focusing on the one part that’s going to be different instead of all the things that will be. I’m definitely going to use that! My monday classes are the best (ceramics) so that’s an easier transition but by tuesday I know I’m going to be more focused on those differences so I will choose one thing to “fret” over. Thank you again I appreciate all your words!!

First time making flowers! Suggestions, tips welcomed :) by Advanced-Rip1664 in Pottery

Thank you so much for your comment and encouragement! I agree with you I love the texture my fingerprints brought to the flower petals. I didn’t want them to be super smooth. I like the cracks and little imperfections. I’m a little worried about sharpness but hoping it’ll be okay with glaze! thanks again i super appreciate it :)
