It is!! It's so hard to get my students to understand how important the bottom is. Pots are made to pick up and use and sooner or later we see and feel the bottom. A nice foot properly finishes the pot!
@farmboy2017 lol there are SOOOOOOO many places to go with that. Is it a statement of male society there are fewer bottom men? and do we darn get into foot fetishes? lol
The joys of playing in the mud!!!! I miss that too. I want to come play. lol
@silverotter11 Uhmmm, yeah. Nice bottoms and feet are part of what makes life worth living ha ha! Lots of innuendo in the pottery world. Makes it a fun course of study
Do you have a kiln?
