The Beginning

@saeed: Your kind comment is sincerely appreciated, thank you.

@Lorraine: Ta-Da! Absolutely wonderful to feel the clay in my hands. I did a few step by step shots of earlier pieces. With clay up to my elbows I have to stop and practically bathe to take a photo.
Also everything is rather dusty for the camera which I carry in wrapped in a towel so I don't get my camera bag dirty.
Thank you for commenting Lorraine.

@Saeed: Thank you Saeed.

@Rabbit: Thanks for stopping by and commenting Rabbit. Recently I finished a cassarole or open bottom piece that I ovaled after working it on the wheel. To the left of this pot is a lid. My first attempt, not the style I wanted originally, I will see how it fits and looks next time I go in. Perhaps remaking it.
This is the largest piece I have made so far. Takes some muscle to get that much clay centered as you know.
I always appreciate your comments on my work. Thanks

@Illuci: Thank you Illuci. Rabbit certainly is an inspiration and well accomplished potter. I hope to do as well someday. I appreciate your comment.

@Judy: Thank you Judy, that is the cover, my first lid attempt. Next time I go in I will see if it actually fits.

@standley: Thank you Richard, it is a wonderful way to be creative. Difficult to take photos of during the process with mud all over your hands.
