    I don't think your yunomi is boring, or nothing special? It does have movement and flavor. I dig the finger marks or drips. The glare is distracting , looks like reflection of house. I like the nature background and shallow depth of field. I'd like to see images with less light hitting house. Shooting reflective objects isn't easy. Sorry for photo tangent, past life.... I'd to see Foot, lip,...mikomi, chadamari,kodai, mikomi. If you don't know these words maybe you should. I'm trying to see why some would make "nothing special" statement. Ok at first glance I ask myself, is it japanese/ Asian influenced, or more so is it tea influenced, Has the maker drank 1000 cups of tea. From a yunomi. I'm not saying a gaijin can't make meaningful relevant pottery. But understanding more than the form and shape will make your work more meaningful. So un fortunately I do think this is a bit of gaijin about it. While large feet are acceptable , this kodai is out of proportion not necessarily in size but out of proportion regarding style. I'm not slamming you yunomi I'd proudly own it. From kodai up it pretty f Straight forward design, color hard to tell but white grey ish. So far leads me to expect a form with formal design principle.......

      The epk based clay is grey brown wet, but very white when dry. Less plastic than I expected, more meticulous pinch pots. But doable. Porcelain (ish) clay can be finicky. Wood fire next month

      Which is what clay is designed for.
