Throwing a Shaped Vessel: aka Sexy Pot

A shaped pot (vase, sexy pot) is really a cylinder with some gentle curves. Too when we try to shape a pot on the pottery wheel we over do it and forget that the centripetal force is also assisting. This pottery video addresses that adjustment and more!
Enjoy!

Woman is my name for her. Beautiful. I’ve JUST learned to throw a cylinder and am super excited to perfect it so I can move on to other shapes. I love your videos. Thank you so much from the UK.

Ive been jotting down some notes and hoping to get some together! My main bit of advice.... always sit down with intention. Know what you are going to make before you center!

[@debbiesmith297]

You are a really good teacher. Thank you so much!❤

[@MudgirlPottery]

This is delightful! I would love to see a video on the rules of thirds and designing forms if that's something you're thinking of doing! :)

[@MudgirlPottery]

YEp. Working on some themes! Stay tuned

I've been wanting to try making a form like this for a little while now. This video is very helpful. Thank you for sharing.

[@MudgirlPottery]

Glad it was helpful. Most important is to make that cylinder BEFORE you make her Sexy!

I get it now: a sexy pot is a cylinder with attitude.

[@MudgirlPottery]

YES!! and they all come in different shapes and sizes! Like many of us with ATTITUDE ;)

[@debbiesmith297]

I’m looking for any video you might have done on pulling up. That seems to be my biggest problem, getting weak spots

I see that nobody gave the pot a name, although you asked us to, so I wanna propose the name Susan for the pot.
