the joining of two separately thrown pieces forever… unless i decide to toss this one.
from here i will continue to build up (hmmm does anyone see a metaphor for life here somewhere)

[coooolcat @oilpostL]

this was definitely my heaviest flip yet 😮‍💨. the way it pops into place though 😻😻

realizing that getting to observe myself is helpful because i’m now noticing how much my eyes are flickering back and forth from the seam to the top to make sure it’s centered, even looking away to focus on just feeling the bulbous form

okay last one!! so i usually throw them in parts and then join them, then continue to throw and shape them. some are/will be stacked in many many parts

[coooolcat @oilpostL]

tallest vessel i’ve made so far (knock on wood bc it’s not done yet so i hope i don’t jinx it and f it up). but it’s the start of a year!

okay hi i’ve been up to my ceramic thing recently, getting back into it. i’m a studio resident at university. just gonna drop a few things and go
