Getting into a rhythm

One of the things that creating pottery has taught me is patience. That lesson is being relearned as I now create pots in two places for only a few hours at a time. This is my second week of pottery classes. I threw a few pots the first week in Jada’s class and followed up with a few more during open studio hours. So this week I was able to trim and finish what I threw last week.

Forgot to take the camera with me to Janet’s class last week and again on Monday when I spent a couple more hours during open studios practicing a new way to neck in a bottle form. Will take some pics tonight. In the meantime, I have been meaning to post this picture of the hot air balloon that surprised us very early the other morning when it floated by the house!

  1. I hope there are some of these in the sky in February! Can’t wait. Glad to read that you are getting your hands muddy again, Terry. 🙂

  2. Thanks Patty. We were told to expect hot air balloon sightings weekly, but this was our first. Maybe by Feb. it will be back to being a regular occurrence.

  3. Go TERRY! Glad to see you’re touching clay. How exciting to be getting new input. O.S. was the best ever and your leftovers flew off my seconds table. Kiln was it’s ever fickle self and wasn’t as juicy as the one right after you left but I was still pleased. DAMN it was soooooo hard to fill it without you!!!!!! Happy new spaces xox e
