Have you become tired and bored of making 4 inch cups? Is the idea of another bowl in your cupboard driving your friends and family to want to hold an intervention? Do you wish to reach new heights (and weights) in your practice and to choose more than one glaze for your pots?? Then join me as we move forward in your journey creating new forms and pushing our pieces to the next phase! ​

 

NEW FOR THIS SESSION! Along with some skills on making our pots bigger and better, we will also be taking the time to focus on surfaces! We will talk about slips, underglazes, washes, and other methods of glazing. AND don’t worry, you don’t need to be a fine art painter to enhance your surfaces! You just need to know a few more tricks! 

Prerequisite: ability to center and pull 4 inch cylinder.
