The weekend yielded a few new efforts in lidded pots. I went wider, then bigger. My carving tool broke about 1/3 of the way through, but I limped through the completion of the set without too much additional effort. . . #liddedjars #nautilus #design #carving #tryingnewthings #variationsonatheme

Worked on carved spiral patterns for lidded jars yesterday. I've got some additional versions to try out in the next batch. . . #carvedclay #spirals #nautilus #hamiltonwilliams #jars

The earlier wave pattern bowl was a rough draft for this one... a special order holey bowl for a customer who is a certified diver. Including carving and holes on a single piece turned out to be pretty tricky as there are lots of opportunities to goof up, but I managed to control the drying carefully and made sure there was adequate structure in the design to keep the piece intact. Now to get it I to the kiln in one piece! . . #challengingpots #specialorders #customwork #custom #hamiltonwilliams #claydesign #holeybowl #fruitbowl #oneofakind #wavepattern #carvedclay #special #customwork #sculpturalclay
