This year I have started pottery on Monday nights. A small group of us bundle into a car and travel across into the city to spend 2 hours getting our hands dirty.
So far I have practiced, but not mastered, the art of coiling.
I have made 2 bowls and 2 small platters.
Last night I glazed them and ow they need their second firing.
It is so funny to me how the clay looks grey when it is wet and then goes white after the first firing.
When you paint the glaze on the colours look chalky and pale.
I can't wait to see how they turn out.
Do you know what colours they will be? Stay tuned to find out!
I am excited to be spending some time with some interesting people and getting away from work for a while.
