Hand-building and Underglazing Low-Relief Wall Hangings
Step into the studio and explore the art of ceramics in this two-part, hands-on workshop!
In our first session, we will use hand-building skills to sculpt and carve our low-relief landscape wall hangings. We will learn about slab-building construction, carving techniques, and how to apply marks on clay to make different textures. Our pieces will then be bisque fired to get ready for the next session. In the second session, we’ll dive into the colorful world of underglazes and bring our bisque-fired creations to life. We will learn about which colors to choose and how to apply painterly techniques to our ceramics.
*Emily will have examples and images of landscapes to browse, but if you have a specific landscape or place that you'd like to use, please bring a reference image to class.
No previous clay experience necessary.
First session: Monday March 23rd, 6-8pm
Second session: Monday April 6th 6-8pm
Please wear clothing you don’t mind getting messy
We will contact you when your piece is ready to pick up (2-3 weeks)
