Objectives:
Make more bowls
Practice thickness consistency
Week 8 Reflection:
I did make more bowls and got better about practicing with consistency, and Mr. A gave me a great tip about if my rims get too thin, then to just trim them, which I had never considered and often times I was pinching so hard trying to get more clay to the rim. Part of the reason I want to make so many bowls is to begin practicing the trimming portion of this study, and while I did get to practice on one pot last week, the one pictures above on the right, I for some reason didn't even think to wrap of the pot on the above left over the weekend so it stayed wet, and it completely dried out. So now I know to be extra cognizant of wrapping my things... but next week I plan on at least watching the tutorials on trimming as well as making a foot ring and finishing the bottom of my pots.
