I was sitting at my wheel throwing when I thought "I bet I could
throw *my* shape mugs in my sleep" I know I can throw them in the
morning before my mind has even thought of getting back into my body!
It has become a task of the hands alone.
Thanks to the input of Mel san and Lori Leary who made Mel's
input possible for me, I know I can throw damn near anything I put my
mind to. (Mel, despite all those damn spiders you keep sending,you
are still a special guy!)
The point of all this? Sometimes someone orders a set of mugs and
they want a different shape. I can do it of course, but all the while
my hands are sending messages to my mind (?) this is wrong, this is
not a mug! I have to put down the insurrection very firmly, otherwise
*my* shape starts emerging.
Does this happen to others too? Things you are so used to throwing
that they try to resist a change in shape?
