'A,' you over there (Slab Construction)

After midterms, my teacher wanted for me to construct one more 10 inch slab. I was clueless on what to create. I was thinking of making a pirate ship, but then I overheard one of my classmates talking about it. Then, I looked down and ... TADA! Idea burst. I was wearing a necklace that had an Eiffel tower pendant. I decided to model my piece after the French landmark.

Once again, I didn't plan my work. I was shorthanded on clay dedicated for that piece. So, I improvised. And, as my ideas unfolded, it strayed away from the Eiffel tower to making a slab of an A. Why A? I don't know. I honestly don't. It was a spur of the moment. It turned out well though. What's the use of an 'A' you say? I could probably use it for a bookend.
