For this project, I started by making the two cups on the wheel. While those bisque fired, I tried to make the pouring vessel. I had to coil it instead of using the wheel, but it turned out alright considering coiling is the devil’s technique. I then glazed the cups and bisque fired the pouring vessel. I didn’t have time to completely finish this project.
Positives: I really like how symmetrical and smooth my cups ended up being. I was also able to make a circle at the bottom of the cups to make them lighter, which was fun. I think for a project where I had to use a tool that was completely foreign to me, it came out ok! Negatives: I am not a fan of my pouring vessel, mostly because I wanted to make it more circular like the cups and I just couldn’t without the wheel. It’s messy and assymetrical, which annoys me. I also had an original idea for the project that I just couldn’t do because of a lack of time and skill, so this project makes me miss what could have been.
