Ellipses are Hard

potI really thought I was doing a good job with this one.  That is, until I finished, took a few steps back, and looked at critically.

The top opening of the pot is massively crooked.  So, a couple of lessons out of this one…

1.  I need to do an overall gesture sketch before diving into the details.  Ellipses are especially hard for me to get right, so I need to focus on this.

2.  I need to spend more time looking.  Looking and comparing.  And when I see discrepancies, I need to be OK with making adjustments.

Still, I like what I did on the handle, and I think I did a decent job capturing the varying textures.
