I have always imposed artificial boundaries and find that much of the creative juice flows from trying to navigate them as opposed to always having totally open options of being able to do anything that could possibly be done. great work and great explanations. hi jeff, fantastic post and beautifully written. i have to agree with one of your central points which is that creativity seems to flourish more when limitations are imposed on it regardless of whether the limitations are facts (like gravity) or conjured up by the individual.

You can actually spin the disc around once it is bisqued. Right before glazing I center it, press up with my finger on it while filling it with glaze. Yeah, Heidi.

When you bisque your work does the disc slide around? I really like how you detail your thought process and work evolution. Great blog! When you bisque your work does the disc slide around?
