Скачать или смотреть How I Throw Lines & Ledges in my Pottery

In this week's video I'm demonstrating a relatively simple technique, it's one that I've come to use a lot in my work as of late, throwing and trimming steps and ledges on my pots to help unify my body of work. I'm a not a potter that does much decoration, yet these marks are a great way of breaking up shapes, creating areas where glazes will interact nicely over. It's nothing revolutionary but I'm asked enough about how I go about throwing these and there is 'some' misinformation online about how I actually go about doing this. I hope you find it helpful!

Thanks SO much for watching!
