I cannot stop watching all your videos. Not only am I learning so much but you are also making me laugh! So happy to have discovered your channel :)

Okay I made my best bowl ever after watching this. Thank you for all the tips 👏

Thanks you so much for making all of these beginner tutorials! I've watched so many, but they're all missing details I need. I used to throw a lot, but the last time was 15yrs ago. My husband bought me a portable wheel (We spend our lives traveling) so I'd have something to do during quarantine (aside from driving him and the teens nuts). 😂 While I remember a lot from before, including form, I've forgotten a lot of the minor stuff that was natural and easy for me originally and are crucial for each step of throwing. These have been fantastic, and I'm back to being able to start throwing again. Now, I just need to figure out how to get these things fired while quarantined. 🤔

Thank Donte, I watched this a few times today then threw my first bowl at college this evening. My tutor was impressed 😎

I LOVE watching your videos. I'm an art teacher (painting, printmaking, and drawing) and am trying my hand (hands) at the wheel....your videos are ones I can understand. THanks for being so clear AND for your awesome sense of humor. I laugh a billion zillon times (I can't count that high either) watching you throw the junk around.

Thank you so much for your videos. Your the only one from many potters video, who actually shows how to position your hand. I’ve actually learned all the basic of pottery from watching your video!

Your pin tool technic makes so much more sense. I've been jabbing it straight on...ooops!! I

[lorimarron-benforado]

Thank you so so so so much!! I have taken classes, paid to join online classes and none of them… let me repeat that NONE OF THEM have taught me 1/10 of what you have. Plus you are fun to listen to. But you make everything make sense. Thank you!!!!

[Tati]

Your videos make so much sense! I've been loving them! I'd love to see more about common mistakes when opening the bowl! The previous video on pulling just helps so much! Thanks!!!

[JonBurnsArt]

you're a very good teacher. you focus on keywords/phrases that matter. your witty comedy helps retain info too.

[hillaryclampet]

It kind of makes me mad knowing I've spent so much money on classes.... i ALWAYS learn more from your videos.
