So, I finally made a piece of #pottery I am genuinely proud of.

@Remittancegirl ooh, gorgeous shape and colours

[pg1958@mastodon.sdf.org]

@Remittancegirl even better!

[remittancegirl@mstdn.social]

@exlibrarykris I'm very happy with it!

[remittancegirl@mstdn.social]

@cwicseolfor Yes! It's a very unpredictable glaze. I gave it three coats, but I still can't figure out where it decides to show green and where terracotta. Doesn't seem to be a question of thickness. But I do like the result.

@pg1958 I think it's an ideal way to start. You get help, guidance on materials and techniques, and they do the bisque firing and the final firing too.

It's a really good deal.

@rejinl I am really proud of the shape. Because I really like those open wide bowls with a small, elegant foot. But they're a pain in the ass to turn - the walls can give up and flop inside out. I did lots of throws I had to scrap, but finally, I managed this one, with some judicious trimming at the leather hard stage. @pg1958

@ahimsa_pdx It's not half bad, is it?

[ahimsa_pdx@disabled.social]

@Remittancegirl It's a lovely shape!

[remittancegirl@mstdn.social]

@aSweetGentleman Thank you so much. I'm quite pleased with it.

@Remittancegirl now I want Remittance Ceramics.

@Remittancegirl love it. the shape, proportions, the distribution of colours (this depends a lot of the passage in the kiln, if i'm not too mistaken?)
