<calmness and relaxation on the wheel that I find in handbuilding. I think I
would be a nervous wreck! I do bonsai, which is *very* relaxing, and am
learning pottery so that I can make my own bonsai pots. I don't think I could
possible have any more fun by adding wheel throwing than I am having right
now.

Hi Nell,
I practice the horticultural art of bonsai as well, and got into ceramics to
make pots over a year ago. I'm an architect by profession and also paint.
I think you can have just as much fun on the wheel and I find it very
relaxing. I take many round perfect pots and modify them with handbuilding
techniques as well. To see some of my work check this out (be patient, there
are a lot of pictures and comments so it may take a bit if you do not have
DSL):
