Notes

More work with curved forms. I used way too much clay to throw this initially, which meant I had to trim nearly 50% of the piece's mass away. Fun, but time consuming. I'm happy with the final form and weight of it after trimming though, as well as its little foot ring.

There is a fair amount of pinholing where the curve of the bowl meets the flat section. I think the glaze was a little too thick, and it pooled in this area and bubbled. It should be fine, but I might refire it or fill the holes in at some point.
