Thanks Ruti! We appreciate you watching!

Well, hello, Jim! So nice to have a voice and hands to go with the name, lol 😉. We’ve had heard so much about you from Ann (all good, of course. 👍🏼). Loved the video and will be giving this a try. 💚. Thanks for all you do!

Beautiful inspiring video Ann and Jim! My son and I are doodlers in the same style:) we will defiantly apply it to pottery! Thanks you always for your patient instruction and tons of inspiration! Love and appreciate you✨🌸✨🙏🏻

You two always make me laugh. Great video and Thanks Jim for showing us that anyone can make something beautiful.

Awesome job Jim! I’ve been watching videos on Neurographic art and this reminds me of that. Also very meditative. Thank you both for providing these videos, I love them!

Oh a neurographic design turned into a carving would be really cool!

Excited to try COLD carving. Thanks.

Oh beautiful piece. This method looks so relaxing and to see it finished is great. It looks stunning

What a great team you two are! This is a great idea

This video is very mediative with the music. I like the idea to use this process when you are stuck creatively. I have the same fear sometimes and unsure what to do when I have a blank piece. I might try this next time

You make a great team!

excellent...love the music too

Love this video Jim, I will definitely be trying this technique out. Thanks for sharing 💖

Really interesting 👌 loved it.

Awesome job both of you from a kiwi 🥝 living in Australia who really needed this chill video today!! Especially from two big beautiful hearts like Jim and Ann!!!! 💚💚💚🥰🐑💨

Thank for sharing! Nice technique and music :)

That looks very good. Great idea! Thanks for the bucket reminder too.

Nice tute. I really like the ones with carving through colored slip. Makes a really nice contrast. 👍👍

Beautiful work. You two make a great team!

Jim: "I'm not a potter." Also Jim: "I'm a potter." 🤭 Great video as always. The pieces Jim worked on all looked bone dry or close to it. Does this approach work better on bone dry then or is it to remove some concerns about deforming the shape?

I (this is Jim) prefer bone dry but it can work either way. When the clay is leather hard (like in the video) there are more inconsistencies and it’s harder to maintain an even carving depth. Thanks Em!

Thank you for this meditative and informative video. It definitely motivated me to try it ! And your voice is so pleasant and calming 😎

Oh this was great !! Thank you both!

Really great! Can't wait to try this.

What a great tutorial!! I haven’t tried this but I definitely plan to. I absolutely love your humor!!! Clay in general has given me a black belt in cursing, my husband is actually a real 10th degree black belt in karate! Hahaha. I just love how both of your voices are so calming! I think it would really look great if you were to use a black underglaze in the crevices and wipe them back, then use a celadon over it. I know it does stain the clay a bit but it would really bring out the carved lines.

Great idea on using the underglaze Michele - I'll try that on one of my future pieces and post in the community section! Appreciate you participating, as always!

This is amazing 👏👏👏. Beautiful pieces . ❤️

Those are really beautiful! I love the designs. ❤️ I do this kind of thing all the time when sketching. Only, I have even less of a plan than you do. I just start making lines and letting my kind wander and eventually look down and see a strange face or object that has appeared. It’s fun and relaxing. I’m giving you fair warning….I’m stealing your 3rd degree black belt saying!🐝🤗❤️

I have got to say that the red glaze that said Ochre on the bottle, was stunning before it was fired, but once it was fired it didn't look as good to me. Just personal taste of course. I have to say that the cold carving that Jim did, was utterly gorgeous and totally mesmerising to watch. I think that is the nicest design I have ever seen on a vase, or any ceramic vessel before. What colour of glaze would I need to get to produce that rusty red colour that the ochre glaze looks like straight out of the bottle please Ann or Jim?

Enjoyed the video and will try when bone dry the next time I carve taking note from your answers. Very soothing video all around. Will hope to see more. I was wondering when using blue language whether a blue belt in cussing would in this case be classed higher than a black belt? Ann, didnae do too badly behind the camera either. Cheers...Freddie

Good point Freddie. My 3rd degree black belt is from a non-sanctioned association (NAC - National Association of Cussers) - I do believe the sanctioned cussing belts are awarded by the World Cussing Organization (WCO) which, by the way, is located in Scotland.
