There are only 2 more class periods before we have to stop working on wet clay. All clay must be dry and ready for bisque firing next Thursday. Today's class (Wednesday) and next Monday's class is the last time I'll have to work with wet clay.

I feel rushed, as there are many more techniques to learn and experiments to observe. But I'm not going to try to rush anything, going for depth rather then trying to start a variety of new projects.

The class is really too short, officially scheduled for 5:30 - 7:45 pm. This gives only 2 1/4 hours of studio time a class. I usually get there by 5 pm and leave around 8 or 8:15 pm, which gives me at least 3 hours of studio time. I also always go on Saturday, from noon to 5pm. The studio is closed Sunday. Next semester I might be able to stay longer, once the teacher knows me better.
