Found them!

This is extremely awesome.

Spectacular! Thanks for showing some examples.

Oooh, it’s fun to play “guess the combo”!

Thank you! I am getting a huge dopamine rush from your hard work 😆 I appreciate your reflections and learnings, that is incredibly kind and thoughtful of you to share. Congratulations!

It’s MF decorative gourd season!

My god, I love those teeth bowls

Yeah, know that as much as it’s a PITA, I’m enjoying seeing these!

My god, I love that pour-over coffee face!

Rad! Thank you!

I found one! One to go.

Thank you, Chris! That’s great info - I haven’t made any of those things, so it sounds like Beginner 2 is a great class for me next. (The forms I’ve made have been cylinders, mugs, plates, all-in-one planters, round-bottomed forms, throwing those forms off the hump and my questions have been more about mastery of the forms, than new forms.)

I also appreciate you telling us about this, so we can set our expectations for why things are different. I love the pointer that we can all help pitch in cleaning up so the staff can focus on the heavy season!

I’ve already found it useful, in two ways! I lost some bats, so I had someplace to put a call out. I sometimes want to strategize about stopping by the studio based on if I have pots coming out of the kiln. I noticed that folks are posting when there’s new stuff out, and that’s so helpful! (Also, I love seeing everyone’s new work, and just knowing new stuff is out is energizing.) I can imagine being able to track a student down here who I talk to at the studio, to share a resource or ask a question. I’ve also seen a great finished piece and saw that someone else put a note in it to ask how they accomplished that glaze, that technique, etc. If that happened here, we’d all get to learn from it! (If you can’t tell, I think this is great.)
