enthusiasts who have a solid foundation in pottery, looking to grow
their creativity and knowledge of wheel throwing. Through individual and
group discussion the class looks to offer guidance in wheel techniques
for stack vessels, jars and lids, teapots, unique handle designs,
trimming, and different ways to deal with large amounts of clay on the
wheel. The course will also introduce knowledge of clay bodies- the way
they react to certain circumstances during the creation process,
aesthetics of form, surface decoration, glaze techniques, and some
interesting historical context that still has relevance to the medium
today. Expect a collaborative and dynamic environment where you can
experiment with new ideas, receive constructive feedback, and grow as an
artist!
