I'd recommend David Binns' kurinuki pieces, he explains it perfectly especially the level of dryness. Your shapes are beautiful but yeah too wet. I also found out carving outside first is often a great practice to avoid carving your walls later on :)
You made this for the first time? It's beautiful. How was your experience? I am very proud of you. I like you trying different types of cups every now and then.
Thank you! It was quite relaxing to do. Very different from working on the wheel. It is slow and contemplative, while working at the wheel can be fast paced and focus intensive. As I am not making pottery for a very long time, I find it important to try different ways of working the clay, to slowly understand what I like the most and develop that way.
I did some research, reading about it and watching documentary content, but I can't point to specific sources. It is possible (or almost certain) that in this video I am doing things wrong, according to the traditional methods. It was simply a first dive into the process of carving and trying to achive kurinuki like results.
This is a dark stoneware with lots of grog. The grog in this clay is too aggressive to throw on the wheel, that was one of the reasons that lead me to try this method.
I believe what you did is "technically" not kurinuki because the most important part is that you must hollow out the inside from a block of clay, you cannot make a hole by moving the clay.
You might be right. I know I am not educated enough in the matter to say for sure. I still hollowed out the inside, carving it to its final shape, while the initial moving of the clay was made for practical purposes. This was simply a first attempt from a true beginner at something kurinuki like. I hope to get better at it in future attempts.

Interesting, what was your initial resource for information on kurinuki please? Thank you.

@@da_forma Thanks, it does seem quite elusive finding any really good written information.

very cool! what type of clay is this?

beautiful. I think your clay is too wet though. You'll get better tear if it's dryer.
That’s true. I should’ve let it dry for longer before starting to cut. It’s always a learning experience.
