5/9/2019 - Im really happy, this week i was able to get two plates decorated and ready to be fired in the greenware kiln. I'm happy because today I was actually able to throw something nice on the wheel. It looks surprisingly short and stout in the photo but in real life its a lot taller. I really like how my cup looks and i just want it to turn out good

week of 3/22/19 - this week was really hard because over the two class periods i threw on the wheel 8 times with nothing fruitful. I dont know how this happened despite the bowl and cup I made in the past. I really wanna use the wheel for my 4 matching pieces project but i cant seem to get anything to come out of it. No matter how hard I tried to center it never turned out quite right. I hope to get better at centering from all this.
5/2/2019 - This week my bust finally got finished and I really like the way that it turned out, I really like the glaze i chose a lot. My rectangular plate didnt really work out. It got too dry, so it was hard to add new parts to it, and because I added a huge hole to it, there was really no fixing that once it was dry. I got kind of bored with the rectangular idea and i put it in the slop bucket, rolled a new slab, and ive made a triangular plate. Im keeping with the same concept but not using the exact same construction method. I let this plate set out to dry so hopefully it will become more leather hard over the weekend.
