playing around with pottery

We've been taking pottery classes for some time and the time has come to reap the fruits of our 'labor'; finally we get our chance to fool around at the wheel ;)

Last week the basic ceramic bowls were already created and left to harden slightly. Now it's time to, ahem, refine the shapes.
Before transformation - a set of sorry looking bowls.

Some random picture inserted here :x

Finally, our completed babies - a marked improvement

Earlier we 'sent' a few items for glazing and this is the finished product. Nice teacup set. Not-so-nice plate set.
Still a long way to go, towards mastering the art of pottery. sigh.
