and next?

The next big production push will be starting in June for the Edible Fest in August. I have a good sense of what/how much I want to make and I feel good about my forms HOWEVER I want to continue to explore glazing.

Glazing is the hardest part of ceramics (for me anyway) because it only takes two seconds of careless glazing to "ruin" a pot. So much time goes into every stage of making -wedging-throwing-trimming-finishing-firing-and it can all be in vain if that very last step isn't approached thoughtfully.

All of the failures and accidents become lessons though, so a couple of pots should be sacrificed in the search of something new.

Just needed to remind myself of that...now, let's destroy some pots!
