HANDBUILT CERAMICS: DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION @
Using techniques similar to package design and dressmaking, we will explore a multi-layered approach to slab constructed functional ceramics.
Participants will be guided through the process from initial drawings to pattern design using paper and roofing felt, to assembling components. Surface treatment will include the use of slip, sgraffito, appliqué, and unconventional tools to achieve visual and tactile depth. Technical and aesthetic aspects will be considered while exploring forms including boxes, bowls, platters, teapots and cups. Participants will leave the workshop feeling competent in a number of forming methods. www.lisapedolsky.com For more information call 575-7704334 ~ www.taosclay.com Cost for the workshop is $195.00.
