A cracked plate

After missing a week of pottery (the studio was closed for a week), I've found a cracked plate. It was a little sad because it was a decent plate. Too bad I didn't run a wire underneath two weeks ago. So, the bottom was still stuck to the bat and the pot was shrinking while it dries. Therefore, this big "S" crack formed. Oh well, at least one of them survived. The good thing is that I was able to make 2 more plates and 2 bowls. And yes, I did run a wire underneath the 2 plates. So, hopefully, no more "S" crack accidents. Some more pictures (these pots are made from mid-cal 0 clay): Plate glazed with Harvest Gold The same plate with good food.

However, I am a bit bored from making mug, so probably won't see me making a mug for a while. So, what am I making nowadays?! Some plates....we'll see how it goes... Just got a call from the studio the other day, they said the studio it's closed this week. How's disappointing?! Hopefully, my plates won't be too dry to trim next week. More pictures: These two bowls above are made from white clay and glazed with Emerald Green with Denim Blue. Noodle bowls which can hold a pair of chopsticks. They are made from brown clay and glazed with Mysterious Blue and Black sponged on the rim. This mug is made from whit...
