My first ceramic experience idea! I saw online that people make ceramic pieces with clay which has tiny rocks with it, and how they embed gem stones into silver and copper clay. So I am wondering can do something similar with different kinds of clay -- rub the gemstone pieces into the clay and make the whole piece sparkly, or embed them onto the surface of the clay piece to create a similar result like the metal clay embedding.
But first of all, Need to buy some gemstones that are cheaper for the experience. so I decided to think about what am I making out of this experience. I think It will look good if I make a jewelry pendant or some tiny beads.

Dry clay Is very fragile.

The eye I made looks better than I thought just with bisque fire. I think It will also look great without color, so I decided to make more eyes, maybe I can make a whole set of it.
For my object-to-object project, It's harder than I thought.
Plywood here was more expensive than I thought, so my new challenge was to make this under a tight budget limited, and how to reach the same effect with less material.

 I think those exhibitions that you can interact with will be more attractive to me.
One of the conditions for applying Global talent visa was that I need to attend some exhibitions, So recently I was thinking about holding an exhibition by myself.
Just like I said, I want the exhibition that I hold ( if I could) to be interesting, and also, I find that is hard to know which and how can I join an exhibition. I want to do something about that.
