Shokso Studio

✨ Let’s get this week started with some clay fun
😝 What’s next?

😜 Still trying to learn how the colours in the studio shows on this clay body
Kiln opening is always such a mix feeling ride🤪
😅 Having to wait for 8+hours for it to finish the heating process and then 9+ hours of cooling process before getting to open the kiln safely.
Breakdown of the emotional roller coaster lately:
🥳 Loading in the kiln: 10mins (excited)
🤔 Waiting for firing: 17hrs + (lots of what ifs)
😳 Opening the kiln: 5 secs (reliefs)
✨Endless learning life lessons with ceramic practice. Constantly learning how to:
Letting go;
Managing expectations;
Emotional regulation;
Deepening awareness of cause and effect
🫧 Pottery is never only the calm side people associate with. It is literally roller coaster half of the time. Specially when you are a beginner like me. But that’s also the beauty of pottery where it simplifies complex life lessons into an express classtime.
🥰 Haha but should I say all form of art practices are express paths to deeper understanding of life in general;)
