Good progress

Yesterday I went to the studio to throw but also to paint my mug I've posted on here before (assuming it hadn't exploded in the kiln, which is didnt. Phew) The first hour I spent throwing two mugs, and found myself to be centering the clay easier and faster. Unfortunately, the second mug I made went wrong at the very end and I had to dispose of it. But here's what I made!

I know, I know.. "She's jumping around from idea to idea". I figured that out, and I need to stop and make a solid list of what mugs I'm making in what order. So here's my first idea- perfect this style. I'm going to try throwing it again next weekend except taller and less of a bottled in neck.

 After throwing this mug, which I'm pretty happy with so far, I started painting the first experimental cup I made for the next hour. The picture I took turned out pretty bad so I can't update you with that but I've decided to paint it black and light green.
