[@subifuwant9583]

This was so calming and aesthetically put together

[@Thegoodwitchpottery]

Agreed!

[@Thegoodwitchpottery]

I second this!

[@fromtreetosea]

thank you so much! 🥰

[@twonapsaday]

as someone who recently came back to ceramics and is now handbuilding at home... this was so fun to watch! coiling seems to be the way to go for vases! I mostly only have porcelain right now so I don't know how well it'll go. we'll see! looking forward to seeing the progression of this piece!

[@fromtreetosea]

oh so fun! would love to hear your results working with porcelain if you try it, I hardly ever work with it so I’m curious 🥰

[@nadialeeabu]

oh I can't wait to see how you glaze it! This inspires me to try to hand build something big...

[@fromtreetosea]

eeep I'm so nervous about decorating it now that it's built ahah! I'll definitely post a finished update. and yes you should totally try making a big piece!!! so fun to expand your practice every once in a while :-)

[@Meomeo-uv6fn]

Woahhh I just started a coil pot yesterday! Yours is so even and smooth its amazing

[@fromtreetosea]

ooh yay!! ty haha I just clean it up and smooth it out a lot as I go! the camera probably hides some of the texture / small bumpy spots too 😅 best of luck with yours!

[@Meomeo-uv6fn]

@@fromtreetosea noice! cant wait to see it glazed and fired 💕

[@Enchantelle]

I love your little studio 💛 it was so cool for me to see your process on this as I know pretty much nothing about ceramics haha! best of luck to you while you prepare for your solo show. so exciting! 🥰

[@fromtreetosea]

oh that’s so fun! you should definitely try it out if you ever get the chance :-) & thank youuu! 💕

[@07Valerie]

Very satisfying video. Thanks for sharing your process.

[@clayeasy]

Calm and nice video! Love the result! Thank you for sharing! Greetings from small Finland!

[@potsofjoie]

big congrats to your first solo art show!!! if only I lived in Calgary T.T but seeing your hand building process looks like so much fun!! definitely makes me wanna try to challenge myself into hand building at a larger scale! :-)

[@fromtreetosea]

thank you so much angel!! wish you could come to the show 🥺 definitely recommend trying it even for the experience, it’s so fun working at a different scale / getting off the wheel! 💕

[@treeshaarellano4277]

So amazing! Will definitely check out your art show for sure!! I hope you could host a workshop in the future too!! 😍

[@fromtreetosea]

YAY! I was actually just chatting about potentially doing a winter handbuilding workshop in the same space the art show will be so stay tuned!! :-)

[@swavnasahoo711]

Loved the piece, loved ur art workspace. Came across you and the channel with this video. 🌸🌸

[@fromtreetosea]

I’m so glad you enjoyed it - yay and welcome! :-)

[@melina5246]

I get so inspired seeing you work, I'm also a ceramist (I'm actually still learning) from Brazil. How much clay did you used for this one? Sending lots of love :*

[@fromtreetosea]

great question, I just added some more details to the description! I would say roughly a bag and a half of clay (under 20 kg) - it’s a bit hard to estimate but I’ll try to note how much I used for future projects! 💕

[@pavlomelnyk1020]

it turned out well) and is it necessary to bake such a vase somehow, or is it self-drying clay?

[@fromtreetosea]

thank you! It’s made from stoneware so I had to fire it in a kiln :-)

[@pavlomelnyk1020]

@@fromtreetosea do you know what the type clay I can use for vase big size like 100cm height without oven?

[@katmill5674]

What is the surface/board made of you're rolling the coils on? I wraps around the edge of your table. It's genius.

[@fromtreetosea]

it's actually a pre-made wedging board I ordered from Sounding Stone! it's a canadian pottery supplier but they have an online shop :-) I have one for every type of clay that I store under my working desk, so handy!

[@KerstinJellback]

WOW! Beatiful!

[@fromtreetosea]

Thank you! 😊

[@clementramon8589]

Wow you are brave and calm person! Your piece came out beautiful. Just found your channel. Definitely gonna subscribe. Thank you for sharing. Peace.

[@brybasaur]

When I look at your squiggly piece, I envision a sphere shaped complimentary piece 😊

[@fromtreetosea]

ooh I like the sounds of that!

[@Vasyan228]

@@fromtreetosea thanks so much! I'm a sculptor in Northern California (near Lake Tahoe) and really love your videos. I'm binging tonight, haha! I take classes from a master sculptor here and am building up my work. It is great to see your passion and also your talent for videos!

[@fromtreetosea]

@@JulietteWilliams whoa what a cool opportunity to learn!! 👏🏼

[@paulareuber919]

Beautiful!!

[@fromtreetosea]

I was using my canon g7x to film, probably perched on a pot or bottle of underglaze 😂

[@beliboop]

I made almost the exact same shape hand coiled vase a couple years ago!!

[@fromtreetosea]

ahh how fun to be on the same wavelength, I love that! :-)
