Throwing lesson at Rossa Pottery :)

Rossa Pottery gift shop, if you’re a tourist coming to Ireland, I’d totally recommend you visit! Unique Irish craft at reasonable prices, and friendly staff.  They mainly sell pottery, but have a wide range of Irish fashion and jewelry, as well as quirky trinkets and children’s toys.

Selfie with my mother and the Rossa Pottery team!  I had a great time doing pot! (punny) with these guys!  Bowls and cups were made, picked up loads of tips.

Attaching handles on this scale, for me, is a little stressful. But if I take my time and plan out what I’m going to do it usually comes out good. After I got these attached I’ll let them sit and acclimate moisture wise with the pot. I usually wait a day, and then I’ll start to clean them up. www.etsy.com/shop/franknemick #ceramics #ceramicart #coloradoart #contemporaryart #contemporaryceramics #minimalism #art #abstract #abstractart #stoneware #process #colorado #pottery #coffeetime #craftsmanship #craft #process #wip #studio #studiolife #ceramic #clay #clayart #handles #clayvideo (at Frank Nemick, Man Dreaming)

WOW! I’d LOVE if I had time on my course to make and fire something of this scale! Just phenomenal!
