Creations of the Wheel
AM Pottery Kids Camp
Clay, Wheel, Water, Tools
During the course of this morning's class, Ashlee worked constantly on her assigned wheel. Gathering what she had remembered from the past year at this same camp, she effectively made use of the tools she was given (wire tool, sponge, pin tool, wooden tool).Centering the clay on the wheel, Ashlee cupped her hands firmly on the clay with fingers outstretched and made the wheel go at a medium speed. Once done the hardest part, she put her thumbs together making a slight depression into the clay in which the wheel then helped turn Ashlee's creation from an ordinary mound of clay into one of her remarkable pots.
