SORPC Members: $230 Non-members: $255
Level: Beginners to intermediate - adult classes only. Try your hand at handbuilding, come and join in and be bowled over! This 4 week class is fun and inclusive and will cover a range of hand building techniques including slab building, coil building and slump moulds.
I will cater for those with little experience or for those that want to develop their skills further.
We will make plates, bowls, vases or sculptures which we can add elements to create extra dimension and interest.
During this 4 week course students will explore various methods of hand building to create functional ware using pinch, coil and slab techniques using studio equipment, design templates and shape formers. A fun and relaxed atmosphere and ideal for those with little experience through to those who may like to further improve and advance the concepts already used. You can work on your own projects or can be guided with projects suggested by the teacher.
With these techniques you will have a foundation to expand your knowledge, be able to practise and create more pieces using your own expression. A second course will follow this one in which we will explore and develop various techniques for surface decoration on leather hard pots.
No make up classes if sessions are missed. Short nails are preferrable for ceramic work. Classes start on time. Please allow a thorough 15 minute clean-up of your workspace and the studio before the class period ends.
What to bring:
Basic pottery toolkit (needle tool, sponge, wooden, rubber rib and scoring rib) – a starter pack can be purchased at the studio on the day.
Wear enclosed shoes, bring an apron, small towel, visual diary, pencil and take away mug.
Clay and firing of work included.
