Blog day 12

Went in to slocumb today with the plan to just glaze all day. I glazed about 4 or 5 mugs and talked with Kate about what glazes I should use. A bunch of the glazes that came out on Saturday were really ugly and not what I wanted. So this week I’m going to make a whole mother batch of mugs and bowls knowing what glazes I should use. I had a couple people come in today to look at some mugs, but I told them they should come in later this week or next week to get better pieces.

Senior project day 1

4/29/19 5:15 PM Woke up at 7 thinking I had to go to class only to remember I couldn’t sleep in another hour or so. I put on some sweatpants and walked down to slocumb hall to make some pottery. Each day I go down I’m going to focus on making a set of mugs or bowls. Today I made a set of 3 mugs and I also made two bowls. I’ll be in at night actually throwing and making pottery and during the day I’ll be trimming. It’s the most quiet at night, allowing me to really focus. Total hours=5

Blog day 15

5/18/19 10:15 PM   Today I woke up early and went into slocumb to Finnish some trimming. I got 4 mugs trimmed, and trimmed a big bowl I made for my mom and a vase. I spent some time watching videos on pottery and how to make certain shapes. I spend my last hour putting handles on my mugs, which has been a struggle for me since I started making pottery, but my technique and skill has improved so much in the last 2 weeks. Once this last batch of pottery is fired it will be for sale at express fest. Daily hours=3 Total hours= 63
