Trimming is one of my favorite parts of wheel throwing. But with my limited time in the studio, it is an extra step that I sometimes wouldn't mind avoiding. But if you skip trimming, you have to make sure you do something to make your feet look finished. Otherwise, a lovely pot can look sloppy.
That's why I love the technique demonstrated in today's video clip. In this excerpt from his video Lively Forms and Expressive Surfaces,Mark Peters shares his no-trim foot technique.–Jennifer Poellot Harnetty, editor
