My pottery!

So, over the last few weeks I have been in pottery lessons. I have learned the basics now, and am going to continue to practice and gain skill. I also enjoy the painting. Our little studio in downtown Melbourne is great, and it's beginning to feel like a second home to me.

I haven't taken any photos of my week 1 attempts. They're pretty pitiful, and hardly worth mentioning. Even the paint on them looks like crap!

Week Two attempts:

These two are attempts at mugs. Not very drinkable. However, they gave me a good canvas to practice my painting techniques.

This is my funky gravy bowl. The sides were weak, so one side collapsed leaving neat creases. I formed a "spout" and added a handle, and VOILA!
