I Recreated This Ancient Pottery Pitcher 100% From Nature
Andy Ward's Ancient Pottery
@ancientpotteryAbout
Our ancestors made pottery using just their hands and simple tools, you can make pottery in the same way today. My name is Andy Ward and I have spent decades studying the ancient pottery found near my home in Arizona and trying to recreate it. Through this channel I share these techniques for making pottery, finding and using wild clay and natural pigments and firing pottery without a kiln. Go ahead and subscribe to come along with me as I learn to make pottery like the ancients. Lots more information including pottery workshops and online classes are on my website https://ancientpottery.how
