Description
Often considered the Everest of the potter’s craft – immensely challenging to approach and infinitely satisfy to conquer- it’s multiple components and functional demands require focused consideration and attention to detail.
They can also be great fun to make when you have time on your side and guidance at hand.
There will be discussion about function and design practicalities, glazing and decorating possibilities and the importance of personal creative expression.
This workshop is designed for students with intermediate throwing experience. (centring clay is required)
