Thanks for the burnishing lesson! I love the slip inlay, too. Reminds me of korean pottery, some of my favorite are the slip inlaid stampings and carvings
Great guitar background, it really adds to the video! I hope it becomes a regular part of all your presentations. And the burnishing was a good addition to the techniques you've shown us before.
Thank you so much Simon, I will watch again later as I watched this in the middle of the night and now have to go! Loved the rim decoration, and now can’t wait to see the finished item 😍 loved the look of the burnished pot, nice colour clay, ours is like grey, not so attractive.....when I say our, I mean where I take classes. Nice guitar playing!
SpellboundTonight - my studio was a garage but it was already insulated when I came here. Double up and over doors need to be shut tight in winter so drafts don't come/wind blowing etc ...Winter time is a challenge of course for us all here in the north east to stay warm and motivated ! Having a wood burning stove is a great comfort and gives a dry heat which is what we want for drying pots, and staying warm. I use foam mats on floor around table and sink so walking and standing and keeping feet warm is more comfortable. I have reasonably good light for working so I can see what I am doing. I have a sink which drains out on to a patch of garden behind some bushes, but I don't slush lots of clay down my sink but recycle it as I go. We have to make do with what we have do we not ? - SL
