Wheel Throwing Series: Throwing Three Bowl Forms on The Potter's Wheel!

This is part of the new wheel series I am working on!! I am remaking my wheel videos on my new SKUTT wheel!!! Here is a link to my wheel- available from most good pottery suppliers. https://skutt.com/products-page/potters-wheels/classic/ The video is focused on 3 different types of bowl forms. Traditional Rounded- Shaped like a “U” Taller, flared, with small interior- shaped like a “V” Wider, flatter, shorter- shaped like a really wide “U” All three bowls are from 1.5 lbs of clay. I am using Laguna B mix cone 6. I ordered my bisque tiles from Bailey pottery. https://www.baileypottery.com/c-171-606.html My new series will offer new videos with tips and tricks to successfully wheel throw pieces- from beginner to intermediate to advanced. I will be offering a good deal of EXPLANATION within the videos to help people understand the mechanics of why things work the way they do! I often tell my students they learn more from their mistakes than from their successes in throwing. In these videos in my series, I will try to distill my best tips I have learned from my successes and failures, and my students' struggles as well. Two things have led me to becoming the potter I am today. Countless hours of making pots, (and explaining how to make pots), and understanding and learning from my failures when pots didn’t work out! These are the things I want to share with you- to help YOU become a better potter!

(Mason is currently the largest high school in Ohio!) As a potter, I have been working in clay for over 33+ years, and I have been teaching for over 30 years, the past 22 have been specifically teaching high school ceramics. I love what I do! I have my own studio in my home basement, where I work on my personal pottery for my Etsy site; https://www.etsy.com/shop/KaransPotsAndGlass I started my Youtube channel a few years ago, to make videos to help my students if they are absent and miss a demo, or if they would like to explore more advanced techniques independently. Please subscribe to my channel if you would like to receive channel updates, or would like to learn more about clay and studio processes! I am in a partnership with Skutt - as they sent me the new wheel to use for the videos! I am not receiving any compensation from them beyond the wheel.
