Second round of mugs. I know what I’m aiming for this time, but getting the height was kinda tricky. The shortest and tallest ones in the picture were the first and last mugs I threw the other day… The shortest was the first attempt (same height as the first batch o’ mugs), and the tallest (which is the height I was aiming for) was the last. Now that I know for sure I can actually do it with that amount of clay, I can get working on consistency.
Mugs 2.0

My name is Maaike Charron, and I'm a potter in St. John's, Newfoundland. I started fiddling around with pottery in summer 2006, when I was told volunteering in the local clay studio would get me free studio time. I mostly taught myself, spending a lot of time poring over books, magazines and websites, and occasionally pestering the more advanced (but very helpful) potters around me with questions. After about two years, I decided I'd gotten good enough to go into business for myself. This blog, started after my first big craft fair, was created to document the process of becoming a wondrously succesful craftsperson. (Or it will document How Not To Do It. We'll see.)
