In this video Ann shares key concepts she has acquired over her years of learning about design. She will share 5 Secrets (yes, its a click bait term), or concepts you should think about before you start wedging your clay. She uses a carved piece as an object lesson and even shares a few carving tips along the way. Enjoy friends! You can see the fired pieces in the Community Section of our channel.
