Today I made myself throw some pottery. I have been battling some health issues lately (mostly stress related with a kidney stone passing to top it off)

Felt good to be back at the wheel, I think last time was before Thanksgiving 2025.

One of the bowls I made is a prototype I'm trying to make a taller but shallow bowl for our dogs after our dog trainer suggest we lift their bowls off the ground a bit to help them not gulp so much air, which ends in toots ha

Success! I tested then enacted this #pattern #texture combo on a tissue box.

My chronological pottery recap (and exodus from #instagram ) continues with my early 2024 experiments in shape, #pattern and #texture.

Actually, I am posting my pots in chronological order, starting with one of the first pots I ever made, during my freshman year in college - 50 years ago! Despite this auspicious start, I didn’t make anything else until last year!
