This week I have attempting to throw my tall project and yesterday I was able to make one I was happy with. (After about 5 attempts) Also this week I have had my 4th bowl and wheel altered project fired and glazed, and they should both be out by Friday. Today I footed my tall project, and tomorrow I will start my set of three.

This week I worked on glazing the last of my projects from 1st quarter. I also made a two new bowls for my work log and an extra credit bowl. I have a picture of one of the bowls below, its been a pretty good week in this class, I'm looking forward to the future. (jk, just this next week ;)
So, first week back from break and its been pretty uneventful. So far our Frankenpot has been bisqued and glazed, now on the shelf to go back into the kiln. My plates are also on the shelf, as well as my choice project for the quarter, which is just a simple bowl. Looking forward to getting caught up in this class.
today i put together all three pieces that we threw the past two days and i'm really proud of the result, it looks really good. tomorrow i will foot it and it will be bisqued over break.
Hey happy Monday! I have some awesome news, I got my cast off this morning and I'm in a boot and can somewhat walk around which means I can probably get on the wheel tomorrow. Things are going well in this class, I just finished my cup project and my plantar came out of the bisque so I started glazing that as well. One of my set of two plates is bone-dry and ready to be fired and I am letting the other one dry out in my locker for about another day or so. I took a really cool picture of my two plates and the base of my plantar that really illustrates the three stages of clay that I thought were cool. I have also included a picture of my fired plantar set.
Hey so today I finished my cup project, it was supposed to have a pulled handle, but i was not aware of that until after it was made :( Hopefully I can get back on the wheel soon and make a new cup on the wheel, I really miss it. Throwing is so calming and peaceful amid all the stress and anxiety in my life.
On another note, the quarter is almost over and I still have about three projects still to do because of how much school I missed. Thanks for being understanding. Sorry for the long lapse in posts, however a lot has been going on in my life right now.
I recently broke the end of my fibula, which is a real bummer because I can no longer get on the wheel. So i will be making supplimental hand projects instead, bear with me through this. Hi, I really, really, really, need to post my projects on my grading blog. However, My mom has been gone on a business trip for two weeks, so I have been unable to take any pictures of me projects. Bear with me and I will get those done as soon as possible.For some odd reason, this refused to upload until right now, which is awesome....first bowl on the wheel, which is now being glazed.
