This is a portfolio of the work I've done this semester in Fundamentals of Pottery. The first project is the oldest post, the last project is the newest post. While some of the projects turned out in ways I didn't expect, they were all beyond what I could have imagined making when I started in August! That said, I do apologize about the rather yellow quality to several of the photographs.
