For complete beginners to those looking to enhance their skills with tailored teaching to the stage of technical skill you’re at. Will focus on short bursts of one-on-one time for each person each lesson. I will hope to provide an additional perspective to wheel throwing technique coming from someone with a production throwing background – any shortcuts and ways to make it easier, more fluid and fun. Let’s work on your style!

  • Learn techniques used by a Studio Potter to create a number of similar looking pieces.

  • Improve pulling walls of small and large pieces (throwing lines!)

  • Improve confidence in making a piece quickly.

  • Improve ability to centre clay small and large.

  • Have a go at throwing larger bowls

  • Improve trimming skills.

  • Understand the importance of safety in the studio and the dangers of Silica dust.

Please bring an apron or old shirt, wear closed in shoes, bring a basic tool set or purchase one from the studio for $10.00. A few plastic bags to cover work are useful.

There will be two bisque/glaze firing cycles during the course. Students will be asked to choose their best 12 pieces to be fired and glazed. Work produced towards the end of the course may not be able to be glazed in time.

Finn is a 3rd generation potter, taught by his father. He started learning how to throw once finishing high school and for the last 5 years has been working fulltime in his Dad’s pottery studio in Quindalup. He has learnt production throwing of pots of all shapes and sizes, but has a greater passion for having fun with curious potters of all skills and abilities. He encourages people to use the humbling craft of ceramics to connect with friends and explore creativity. Having recently moved to Perth for a change of scenery, he enjoys hosting casual classes for beginners and intermediates. His favourite things to make are water bottles, mugs and large dinner bowls.
