Class begins on Wednesday, February 5th 7pm - 10pm Address: 4710 rue st-ambroise, #255
This class is for a slightly more intermediate student who has taken a class with me or others before :) In this class we will focus on refining skills as well as learning to make our own tools. I love slab building and like making my own stamps and tools, so I want to show students just how versatile clay can be!
Week 1:
Pinch pot ocarina: Making a little whistle / ocarina out of pinch pots. Learning how to make a functional instrument
Week 2:
Making our own clay stamps and tools for decorating slabs
Week 3:
Slab workshop : making mugs using our own handmade stamps!
Week 4:
Coil building: making large salad bowls with a former, bring your own former!
Week 5:
Little tea light / incense house
Demo: using the kurinuki technique to make a lidded house for a tea light or incense
Week 6:
Guided free time, last time to make new pieces before the glazing classes!
Week 7:
Glazing techniques and underglaze
Week 8:
Last class! Pot luck & glazing party
* If there are pieces unfinished by the last class, students will have the opportunity to come into the studio to finish their work for a final 2 hour supervised session with me during the week from 10am-6pm on a weekday while I am in the studio working.
Students will be able to come back around 2 weeks after the class ends to pick up their treasures <3
