First, the espresso cups, pre-trimming:


Of course they aren't all the same, but they are close enough for government work if you ask me!
Next, the goblets:

Unattached, obviously. I'm going to have to throw a chuck to trim the stems in. Cynthia is going to help me with that endeavor next week. For a first go, though, I think they turned out decent.My first lidded pot:

Eh. Hopefully, in this case especially, practice will make perfect...A Big Bowl:
A bit skiwompus, but whatev. It's pretty tall, not really practical, actually. Probably will end up being given away eventually.I did not have much luck throwing last night. I'm not sure what the issue was, but I imagine it had a lot to do with my Half and Half being extremely stiff. I'm not so sure I like the Half and Half, to be honest. I think I'll go back to Dave's Porcelain when I'm done. I have a lot of recycled clay hanging around that should be used though...
Anyway. I threw two bowls, one out of recycled clay (a mix of Daves and Death Valley that was still very soft) that I turned into a flower, and the other which I hope to make into the base of a little idea I had for a sculptural piece...
