I FINALLY started taking my pottery class! Since I have a bit of experience, I was allowed to skip the first 4 weeks of hand building! I knew exactly what I wanted to make for my first project...Tea Bowls! I made a variety of sizes to start off with. I need to feel them out with my own hands...make sure they feel quite comfortable while sipping tea. Tea Time is a sacred thing after all! The clay we use is a white clay. I want to see what the clay looks like after firing, so I just used a clear glaze. I'm hoping for a raw earthy feel...but clean and modern at the same time. We'll see how they turn out!
How exciting! Can't wait to see what you do with them!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see your finished products, I know they will be interesting and amazing, like your blog. I love seeing what you've come up with for us.
ReplyDeleteI really wish I had time to take a class like that, even letterpress or metal work. Glad to see you are making time to grow, can't wait to see what your finished pieces look like.
