Woke up pretty early today. Went in at 8:30 and started throwing. I trimmed a few bowls. And threw a few bowls. This week I’m focusing on making bowls to even out the bowl to mug ratio. I’m going to start making sets of mugs to sell, as well as sets of bowls. My goal is to make one big bowl/piece a day and 4 smaller pieces. Right now I am at 27 piecss  mixed with mugs, to small cereal bowls, to big salad bowls.

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
