Ode to a Greek Pot

My final assignment for my Humanities class was to decorate an ancient Greek pot. This was by far the worst project I have ever had in my entire lift. Luckily, I have the best man a girl could ask for and he helped me paint it. All in all, I spent over 12 hours on this thing (writing a paper included). There was a lot of Dr. Pepper involved.....However, it was all worth it in the end when a got a 95! But still, we are going to smash it later.
I decided to post pictures of this great pot in progress.

Beginning  - Vase purchased at Michaels

Handles molded out of clay



7 Layers of terra cotta paint
