To make my vase symmetrical, I slowly made the shape and looked back at it every couple minutes to make sure it was looking symmetrical. If it was not looking even, I adjusted the clay and molded it so it would be symmetrical.

Pinch Pot: Vase
When you slip a score a piece of pottery you make small notches on the edge of the clay where you will be joining two pieces together. You then put the slip as a type of glue between the two pieces. It is important to score and slip to make a firm connection between two places of clay that you have joined together.

Your pinch pot is definitely coming along. I know it already looks a lot different from these photographs. I will make sure to take a closer look at your work tomorrow in class. Let me know if you need help with anything.
