A pottery blog by NC potter Michael Kline
I've always struggled with any sort of "decoration", be it finger swipes, drawing, painting, etc. As part of my #apprenticeship this year I'm trying to push myself out of my comfort zone, not be so precious with pots, and make mistakes in the pursuit of growing as a potter and as an artist. I rather liked this pitcher and was terrified of putting any marks on it, of making a mistake while decorating and "ruining" it. While I'm not 100% happy with the result, I'm proud of myself for trying something new instead of playing it safe. . . #pottery #inprocess #ceramics #ceramicart #decoration #floral #slip #pitcher #contemporaryart #clay #growth #babysteps #ncclay #828isgreat #personalgrowth A post shared by Joel Willson (@joelwillsonpottery) on Jun 13, 2018 at 5:08pm PDT
