morgaina: (kiln contents)
I had the greatest, finest day in the studio today.
It was amphorae throwing time and they went up and formed shapes by, what seemed like, their own accord. It was difficult to hold myself back and not make them larger than the commission asked for.
They have pointy bases, so I am making them in two parts. Put the slightly dried lower part in a chuck and then put the two sections together and re-throw where they meet.
Those Romans knew pottery!

I also painted the first coats of a door and the ceiling of the guest room, which was not a wise activity considering the water complications of my pump problems. Who cares? :-p
