More Pinch pot construction...

As you can see, there is still a lot of work going on with the pinch pots!  Most are done with the 3rd or 4th practice pot, and getting anxious to do their 5th (and final) pinch pot!



 Me - I'm keepin on with the slab pieces I posted yesterday! (And having too much fun doing it!)

Pinch pots in production!

The students are working hard to finish up their final pinch pot and get it decorated!  Well, actually there are only a couple who have finished their four practice pots yet, but they are getting there!
Meanwhile, I've tried to keep busy as well... just a couple within the last few days.
It's amazing to the students to see what designs you can make with a $1.50 plastic bracelet!


 This vessel is 8" at the top of the lid knob, 9" wide, and 3.5" deep.  I'm working on a couple more right  now!  It was so much fun!


     The kiln is just finishing the two hour preheat on a bisque load.... the vessel above was too damp still to put it in :-(.
