Right now I am working on the cup project but I am also working on a teapot and a vase. I am about half way through the project right now. I would like to learn how to trim from the inside of a piece so I can make my vase lighter without changing the silhouette. I am having problems not throwing away any pieces that have flaws in them. I have thrown away twelve to fifteen cups already and only kept four. I have this vision of intricate cups in my head and I know that I do not have enough time to make them. I guess that is also a problem. Throwing cups is easy. I am also about to start experimenting with incorporating glass into my pieces. It gives pottery a cool texture and a depth that cant be reached with just glaze.
The top picture is a handle for one of my cups.
