I'm going to toot my own horn for just a moment!
These are my first teapots since taking Po Wen Liu's workshop, and I can tell my craftsmanship has leveled up. They still need to be decorated and glazed.
i'll never achieve perfection, but the fun is learning and getting better than I was the day before.
Life is like that too :)

@arisummerland Thank you! There are so many things that need to work in harmony for it to work. a teapot is a true test of a potter's craftsmanship.
I also learned a lot about tea during the workshop, which is it's own art. I'm new to tea, and just starting to explore beyond teabags.
Tea and tisanes are an entire world unto themselves! Learning how to mix and brew loose leaf infusions is also an art. It's quite an enjoyable one, for sure.
