Good morning, P!
How are you and you hubby doing?

I'd love to try pottery, but never got a chance.

If you find a small workshop/introduction to pottery technique near your location, I'd avise you to take it. I'm absolutely sure that you two are gonna love it to attend together it.

It looks like nothing when it's a blob of clay

And it all starts with it. Exactly. When we see the masters in this art make it come to life (as you so clearly stated, it is indeed the best expression to describe it 😍) it seems like magic... Is is in fact very difficult to master. We have to treat the clay with firm and steady, and in the same time, smooth and delicate hands... Almost like breathing out to the piece our soul...

The experience is far more cool then I could put it in words. Believe me!

We don't have that show in Pt, I think. And there is another show, that I've seen when I was in vacations with my God-daughter and her parents, 3 or 4 years ago, that is about glassmaking... It is mesmerizing. There is no possible way that machines can substitute those craftsman in their artist approach, and final result😊
