Pothead Pictures

I finally found my camera (it was under the recliner) so I was able to take some pictures of the fruits of my labor in Hand-Building Clay

Here are the infamous pinch pots... as you can see, some are better than others... practice makes slightly less lopsided, I guess.

The white/gray ones are stoneware, the brown ones terracotta.









Here are some press-molded plates I made, I have to make a few more before tommorrow. I wasn't supposed to make a stoneware plate but I did anyway just because.


Here is a slab of terracotta that needs to be made into a slab construction before tommorrow if I have any desire to make a good grade... unfortunately it is not yet leather hard and thus will not hold its shape...


Here is some stupid recycled terracotta that I left out all weekend but is still not firm enough to flatten out... you can see where the wood is sucking out all the excess moisture...


And finally, they say that art tends to resemble its creator... what do you guys think?
