Hands Shaping Clay Bowl in Studio

A creative studio evening unfolds in a focused quietly industrious mood. A maker shapes a clay bowl at a wheel with sleeves rolled, tools neatly arranged on a linen towel and finished pieces drying on a pine shelf. Depth anchors hands and clay in crisp focus while background shelves soften for hierarchy; DOF preserves rim and finger detail with legible context. Light is warm task glow mixed with cool ambient wash for clear separation; grading leans earthy with subtle contrast. Environment is uncluttered with clean negative space beside the wheel for copy. Camera is seated eye-level with a short-tele field of view, three-quarter composition that frames hands as the focal point. Style is lifestyle editorial capturing craft with modern minimalism.
