LARGE VASES AND JARS, this is where it all started. I have always been fascinated with throwing large. I still remember the first time I pulled a cylinder to my armpit back in 1989. I still have it. My very next thought was; how do I go taller? This is when I began to teach myself how to throw in sections. Though my technics have become much more refined I still work in much the same way today as I did when I first started.
