i want to thank you, your videos inspired me to chase my dream of being a ceramic artist. So I found a very talented potter to teach me and now I'm a student potter!
@@sleachpots so you tube just gave me this notification, 3 years later lol, happy to say I have carried on potting and I learn something new every day, I'm developing my own style and have opened a small studio that I share with other potters in the area that needed a space to work. I also have started a program working with special needs children hand building in clay.
A few years ago I was at a book store in Tel Aviv looking for a craft book, running into Simons book. I opened it and just set down and was staring at it for an our or so. I decided to buy it, quit learning acting and become a potter. Today as I wach this video, fluting my own pots for my first order of 220 pots for a restaurant in town, together with Simon. Thank you for the book!
Simon, this is a very attractive texture. I love the fact that you took it from your father, in which I believe you mentioned that he used the corner of the blade for his fluting...The whole time appreciating your explanation of how, my heart was on- Please don't snap! - Have you ever had one snap on you? Thank you 😊🐝by the way, Great perspective 👍

Thank you Simon for not giving up on us and for teaching us these wonderful tricks of the trade. Have a wonderful day. I hope it cools off there soon.

Thank you yes my Dad used the corner of the tool and I will demo that very soon and some other fluting designs....coming up.
Perfect look for a pot of that shape!
Sometimes that bit of variation is what sets a human made piece apart
Simon, "fluting" takes a level of control that I don't think I will ever attain, but, you younger folk should give it a try!
You might be surprised ...have a go anyway !
It looks great, but why not do it when it's more wet?
Idid one in miniature but I wanna perfect it next time. Pie or quiche plate. I was a bit late so it was drier than leather hard
... So you and your neighbour together are Harry Potter!
Imelda Clay lol!
Ha ha yes !
Thanks Deetadeeradee 😅
