Am still new to Pottery Throwing and have an excellent (+patient!) Teacher.
This is my latest work, and I ♥️ it- but that's just me.
Art is good for your soul 🥂

Session #3 "Intro to Pottery: Wheel throwing" class is a wrap.
Great respect for my Instructor and fellow classmate Potters!
I made a batch of "Potters Punch" for our smorgasbord celebration today.

Learning a ton & having fun!
Art fuels my soul❤️

Massive protest in NYC today as we exercise our rights to peaceably protest against Trump and the GOP.
It was incredibly moving with so many different types of concerned citizens, all marching in unison.
Great job by @50501 and all the numerous kind & professional volunteers!
Way to Go, America 🇺🇸

Bear with me: am calling this my "Salvador Dali inspired cylinder"* 😅

*New to throwing: my cylinder started slowly collapsing, kinda like life in America right now- so I worked it *really hard* and came out with this fun vase.

Making 'lemonade' -best I could do 💪

A friend asked for an ashtray for her joints, and I made this. It took me 5 hours+ of work but am new to this artform- it's a good thing I like my pal! 😅

Often overlooked: Tulsi Gabbard is a retired Lieutenant Colonel in the US Army- meaning she ABSOLUTELY KNOWS the protocol of classified information!
It's an insult to ALL our uniformed members in her lying & not being accountable, under oath, regarding #SignalGate
She needs to resign, too!

I am a proud subscriber of The Atlantic and we should all support this kind of press.
Trump administration ALL lied yesterday, some even under oath = perjury.
Stop the Lying!
Today, Atlantic published the thread, and yes- there is classified info contained.

The administration has downplayed the importance of the text messages inadvertently sent to The Atlantic’s editor in chief.

This is a powerful moment. France protesting the nazi presence in the US on international women’s day. This will end up in textbooks one day.

This is piece #5 that I've made in session #2 of a weekly class, as I am new to ceramics and wheel throwing.
This one came out thinner & lighter and feels great in my hand, as I begin to figure it all out!
I ❤️ this art
Here's are before glaze (bisque) and after pics.

Obviously not counting on MSM, but was hopeful to see some news about its impact...le sigh...

Elon Musk said they "...found a SS number being paid out for 150 years"...
How is that possible when Social Security began in 1935?? Nope!
Keeping track of these lies is getting cray cray and those incels suck at math!

Lifelong Football fan; I haven't missed a Super Bowl since watching SB III Jets vs Colts!
For the first time ever- I will NOT be watching.😢
1st: NFL removing "End Racism" signage =WTF & why?
2nd: The awful & ALWAYS angry man will rob any joy left in the stadium. Hard Pass.
Go Eagles!🏈

Learning more in class #13 today.

Bisque done & glazed today. Can't wait to see it after it's fired!🔥❤️
