Just a cup

I have been noticing my recent projects have been ambisious and i have felt that because i am not producing my best work. pushing youserlf is always a good practice, but i also believe that simple exercises like this remind you of the basics and show you the kind of level that you are working at. for these reasons i have spent a little time modeling a plain cup. no nonsence. heres what i came up with:
(nurbs, phongs, photoshop used to create the floral pattern from a photo i took)
