Video Review

I thought that it was interesting that glass is made up of 60-75% sand.  I also thought that it was very interesting how they make stained glass, by cutting out the stencil and creating a puzzle. I found how they spray large pieces of ceramics instead of dipping them to be pretty cool since all I ever did was dip or brush the glaze on large pieces.  It stated that ceramics are still growing today and there are a lot of things we use that we don't realize are ceramic. The sculptor video was interesting and a little hard to understand. I like that the artist left the bridges for support and safety of the sculpture that helps to keep it in tact during transportation. I also thought it was interesting and amazing how someone can chisel marble to look so fascinating, it stated that if he chiseled too deep it would break it which would ultimately ruin it. Both of these videos relate to the reading because the artists are creating sculptures, crafts, and visual arts, they talk about all of the elements and principles.  I found the videos fairly interesting and learned quite a bit from them.  They add depth to my understanding of how crafts are created out of different materials and I also learned new ways to create things that I hadn't thought of before.
