Lindsey and Donte share some specific, practical tips that might have helped them level up a bit faster. Amidst the talk of ergonomics, slow-drying, and the best way to avoid upsetting your grandma, they examine some of the assumptions and cultural norms that shaped what they thought of as good pottery and what a high-level artist looked like.

A special thanks to Sue McLeod, who came up in our discussion of specific gravity. https://suemcleodceramics.com/
