I love pottery, the feeling of wet clay on the hands. I have been taking pottery classes every fall for the last 2 years and will continue taking them till I can. This year I was more into hand built pottery than wheel throwing. But for my next class I plan to focus more on wheel thrown mugs, bowls and stuff. Following are some of the pictures of some of my hand built stuff and one wheel thrown mug. All waiting to be bisque fired and then glazed.. So stay tuned in for final results :) For more pictures you can visit my other posts here and here Small trays stamped with flower design and heart spoon Wheel thrown mug, carved after leather hard Another long tray stamped Found these stamps at local Pat Catan's Heart spoon. another heart spoon Hope it is as useful as it looks beautiful.. Some more hand built stuff.. may be I can make pendants out of some of those squares and rounds. Hand built whistle turned into elephant sculpture..
