I share my process of making ceramic footed bowls on the pottery wheel, from throwing to trimming. They’ve been a favourite of mine to make lately, such an enjoyable making process that’s part throwing and part sculpting. I’ve named them Nymphae coupes (more on that in the video). This is a different type of video than what I’ve shared before, let me know what you think. I really enjoyed making these. Special thanks to Richard Haubrich for doing an amazing job of creating custom music timed to the video! Go give him a follow https://www.instagram.com/haubrichard on instagram and find his work at https://www.haubrichard.com Also a special thanks to Isabel Mendoza for the incredibly stunning floral arrangements which you see at the end of the video.

About This Video

In this video I’m making a batch of ceramic dessert bowls with an elevated foot—what I’ve been calling my Nymphae coupes. I walk you through the whole process on the wheel, from throwing to trimming, and I talk about why this form has been such a favourite of mine lately. It’s one of those pieces that feels like a mix of throwing and sculpting, and that’s honestly what makes it so satisfying to make. I start with throwing the bowl and setting up the proportions so the silhouette stays light, then I move into trimming where the real personality shows up: refining the foot, lifting it, and shaping it so it feels intentional (not just “a foot that exists”). I also share the finished pieces at the end, plus a little bit of the world around them—custom sound design by Richard Haubrich and floral work by Isabel Mendoza. This video is a slightly different format than what I’ve shared before, but I loved making it, and I hope it’s a calm, practical look at how I build this specific form in my studio right now.
