Task 1: Learn How to Use a Potter's Wheel

I have officially completed the first of my 35 tasks of 2014; I learned how to use a potter's wheel.  Little Man and I went to a family open studio time at Burlington City Arts and learned how to use a potter's wheel.  I hate to admit it, but my 5 year old who does not like to get his hands dirty, is a far better potter then I.  He knows it too!  I had to let go of my first failed attempt and the second one, although not perfect, is a keeper, at least for memory sake. Of course I blame the first failed attempt on the 5 year old who kept telling me I should let him finish it because it would turn out better.  I am glad this made my list of goals for the year; we had a blast, and are planning on going back in the near future.  I just hope the other 34 tasks are as much fun as this one.
