coil project and extra credit

I have completed hand building my coil project and it is currently in the kiln (so unfortunately no pictures this week).  I am also working on an extra credit project which was made with the extruder and is being glazed with under glaze (glaze that can be painted before the first firing).


For my coil project, I found making consistent coils challenging, but I was eventually able to make them relatively similar in size.  I changed my original silhouette to be slightly shorter and wider.  This was realistic as my original plan would have caved in on itself.  Overall I am pleased with this project, though there can always be improvements.
