thanks man, ya if youre trying to progress your teapots, think about trying to make a single style and mood to each piece.  consider shape and form and make them match up.

yeah tea pots are the hardest to make, so many elements to it, body, spout, lid, handle, you got it down. I like the green/orange glaze too. U making those at home or at school?

about the mask piece, i just made it cause i was tired of doing the wheel so much so i took a break and made that. i wasnt planing on making it, i just went with it. it seems like most of my best pieces come out when im not TRYING to make them.

Click for larger image This is almost all I salvaged from my grade 12 ceramics class. The glazing is pretty uneven but at least it's functional.

Anybody see Antiques Roadshow a few weeks back from Louisiana. They profiled some crazy dude from around there who threw sick pots. After search baring, still couldn't come with the name. Anyone... Beuller?
