Juliette’s Wheelhouse on Instagram: "Carving the first of 3 large bowls that I threw the other day. This one is the smallest and is 13 inches across (it will shrink when fired). I decided to carve all 3 differently but I won’t know what pattern I will use until I’m sitting in front of each one. Tools used: @diamondcoretools P11XW Curved Extra-Wide V Tip 18 mm Carving Tool and P1 Curved V Tip Carving Tool. The clay is Sheltowee by @kentuckymudworks"
