This is another bowl I made on the wheel. This bowl went missing for so long and then it came back to me (Hooray!). Being balanced physically and mentally plays a huge part in my success in ceramics. At least that is what I am going to continue to tell myself because I refuse to admit that I suck at ceramics. I have to make a perpendicular geometric angle with my hands to apply force with in order to center the clay and get the desired circle shape and then cylinder form. Increasing the space within the clay opened the clay up, beginning the formation of a bowl. You being balanced and having precise movements is key in your project being balanced and coming together in harmony. This bowl reminds me of camping and getting away from everything and just getting back to nature. Just as the blues and greens move together to unite and harmonize, so does the mind, body, and soul with nature.
