Teacher at the wheel
Kneading
I just enrolled in ceramics school this week and had my first class today! I feel like my arms are going to fall off! I did lots n' lots of kneading, I sat at the wheel for the first time in my life and learned how to center, cut and shape and loved every minute of it :) I also learned that a totally different set of skills is needed for this kind of craft, but most importantly I had fun learning something new. I'm excited to see where this will lead.
