A Jellyfish pinch pot bowl, measures 12″ across and about 8″ deep. I love making these.
On the Subject of Pottery
I began making pottery when I worked in a nursing home. I made it with patients and residents, and it was very satisfying.
Here’s another bowl/planter.
So…after many years since experimenting with clay (which, I was truly experimenting with, not having any training), I was lucky enough to have brief access to a kiln. This was my first attempt at making bowls in, again, mucho years.
Boo.
A few more from back in the hospital “Expressive Therapist” days.
I thought of this one as “the blue brain.” A coil pot, woven randomly together.
This is a drum, which can have a goat (or similar) skin stretched across the opening and fastened through the “eye” holes around the lip. I never found goat skin. I rolled out lengths of clay and the I wove the pieces together.
And this is a bowl that was a gift to some dear friends. Ribbons of clay woven into the form of the bowl.
Yet another pottery bowl from the long ago hospital days.
and finally…
