Starting the studio membership

 


It's August! This means that I can start my membership at the local clay studio. I get about the equivalent of 1 x 3hr session a week (but can squish together 2 sessions to make a full day or do 2+ sessions in a week then less on other weeks).

Today I took work off so I did a morning at the studio. I wasn't sure yet what I wanted to do as I'm a bit unsure if I would make it in time to another session to trim/work into whatever I made this session. In the end I decided to do some wheel throwing practice. I'm honestly not good at any part of the process and wanted at least to focus on practicing centering.

So I got 3 wonky ish pots made, which took a long time for me - but they were a good learning experience. I hope I'll be able to make it to the studio soon to trim the pots before they get too dry. If not, they'll end up in the studio's reclaim bucket 🥲 we will see how it goes!

2 of the 3 wonky pots:


The third one, thrown after these 2, was actually not so bad; yet I didn't photograph it for some reason or another. It'll make an appearance if I make it in time for trimming, etc.
