    1. Create a new image, 500x500 with a white background.
    2. Set your primary color to a light color of your choice and your secondary color to a very dark contrasting color. Now select the circular fill shape tool and check your gradient box, set the size to 400 and select radial for your fill and set at double.
    3. Now drag out a circle and center it.
    4. Using the rectangular selection tool, mark out an area at the bottom of your sphere taking in the full width and select clone only the selected region of current layer and flip vertically.
    5. Move your new layer to the bottom of your sphere so that it approx overlaps the bottom of the sphere and move it back one place.
    6. Now reverse your primary and secondary colors and select the round rectangle fill tool. Set your size to 50 and select vertical and drag out a round rectangle the width of your base and move it over the bottom and resize until you have nice rounded contours. Darken the color slightly of your rectangle so that it blends in with your base and clone it.
    7. Move your cloned layer up and resize it so that it covers the join of the base and the sphere and adjust the color so that it blends in.
    8. Select the oval fill shape tool and set the size to 300 and a forward diagonal gradient and drag out a narrow oval approx the width of the top third of your sphere, move your oval shape so that it fits to the width of the sphere and clone it.
    9. Flip your cloned layer vertically and resize it. Move it to form a rim around the top of your pot. Darken the color of your smaller oval and lighten the color of your larger oval to make the rim stand out.
    10. Select your sphere layer and using the eraser tool carefully erase the top part of your sphere down to the rim of your pot.
    11. Check all of your layers except your background and select keep merge. Take down the color of the new layer until it is black and move it back until it becomes your first layer. Move it down to the right slightly and adjust the opacity to cast a nice shadow.
      • Now you have a pot which you can decorate to your own preference.
    12. Add a carved text to your pot. Choose a suitable font such as castellar with a font size of 28. Using the color picker pick out the lightest area of your pot as your text color.
    13. Type out the text for the top half of your pot and click OK and position it on your pot with the move and resize tool.
    14. Clone your text and take down the color until it is black and move it back a layer.
    15. Move your cloned layer slightly up and to the right.
    16. Select your text layer and take down the opacity until you have a nice carved effect
      • To fine tune your effect you may need to move your text layers slightly.
    17. Repeat the process for the bottom half of your pot.
