Pretending I’m on the Great Pottery Throwdown pt. 3 - BIRDS

I wasn't sure about this challenge when I saw them making it on the Great Pottery Throwdown. I've never sculpted ceramic relief before and I've definitely never sculpted a clay bird before! But I was ready for the challenge and I am SO happy with how they turned out in the end. Join me while I sculpt and carve bird wall art, as well as apply an oxide wash and use underglaze to complete my ceramic bird sculptures! Enjoy! //MENTIONED IN THE VIDEO Throwdown Challenge Ep. 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bcs3MbKdiL8&t=1638s Throwdown Challenge Ep. 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zeANbRVmg7w&t=2018s //ONLINE CLASSES Glazing for Beginners: https://www.potterytothepeople.com/introduction-to-glazing Pottery Wheel for Beginners: https://www.potterytothepeople.com/potters-wheel-online-class Staining Clay & Marbling Pottery: https://www.potterytothepeople.com/marbling-pottery //SHOP Buy my Pottery: https://www.potterytothepeople.com/shop Slab Pottery Templates: https://www.potterytothepeople.com/shop/p/slab-pottery-template-kit-digital Make Pottery at Home ebook: https://www.potterytothepeople.com/shop/p/make-pottery-at-home-ebook //TOOLS & CLAY Stuff I use and recommend: https://www.potterytothepeople.com/tools //SAY HI!
