I don't usually throw big pieces, but it's so refreshing to have a go at something new, push the boundaries, and take myself out of my comfort zone. It was a fantastic challenge for me, as I tend to throw small pieces.
Clay behaves differently on different scales, so I had to alter my throwing technique slightly - more pressure, slower wheel speed, ... - which meant complete focus.
It was so, so satisfying. I think I might try pushing the boundaries more often! 🙌

My table is full of pots, vases and mugs, all about to go into the kiln for their first firing. 🙌
It's so satisfying, seeing them all together, before they take their next step on the journey to becoming a finished, functional piece of pottery.
