Sign up for a laid back 60 to 90 minutes workshop in my garage (Corvallis, Oregon) where you will practice a technique using dried colored slip to create an amazing design on a slab before turning it into a small bowl or plate.
Description
Who should sign up? Class designed for people who already have some ceramic experience interested in discovering new decorating techniques but this class is especially good for beginners as we will create a piece (like a small plate or bowl) using wet clay.
This series of workshops will cover various decorative techniques using colored and plain slip (liquid clay).
What to bring: Everything is included. You will get a lump of wet clay to turn into a slab decorated with the dried colored chips technique that will then be turned into a small plate or bowl. Tools and porcelain slip included. All pieces will be fired in my kiln and you can pick them up within two to three weeks. For this workshop, you cannot bring your personal piece to decorate, as we start from wet clay.
Tools will be provided but if you have some you like, I encourage you to bring them.
You will receive more info and directions by email before the class. Maximum of four people in the class.
If only one or two people are signed up, the class might get cancelled with a full refund. If the class is full but you want to join the waiting list, send me an email. If there is enough demand I will schedule another class. Please contact me if you have any questions.
