The classes will introduce you to the hand building techniques of pinching, coiling and slab building. This is a great opportunity to develop your skills and confidence in transforming clay into a figurative, representational or an abstract form.
Over the eight week course, you will:
Week 1: Design and problem solve a piece of work. Make a marquette of your proposed sculpture.
Week 2: Look at different clays and surfaces appropriate for making your work including grogged clay and paper clay options, as well as glaze and non-traditional surface treatments.
Week 3 - 6: Making forms.
Week 7 - 8: Completing work, bisque firing and finishing of surface treatments.
Please note: You will need to bring $45 cash for your materials fee to the first class.
