Ceramic bonsai containers

I am gearing up to make some vessels for the trees, just rented some space at the Williamsburg
Ceramic Center and planning to make 7 or 8 containers, not sure exactly how refined or crude they will be. I haven't thrown clay on a wheel for 20 years so am not sure if it is like riding a bicycle or playing tennis. Hopefully the former. Those pictured above are just some options of conventional Bonsai design. On January 24th am cooking something for a HYPERALLERGIC Pot Luck Dinner.
