Pottery Hand-building course: Garden Edition

Description

New Pottery Hand-building Course …

Over 3 weekly sessions we will dive into a range of hand-building skills and decorating techniques to create a beautiful collection to add to your garden this summer.

This course is perfect for pottery beginners but will also be great if you have some experience with clay and would like to refine your skills.

We will focus on a range of hand-building techniques & decoration to create -

A collection of mushrooms, toadstool & seed heads perfect plant pot pals & mini bee baths

Also either an organic, table top bird bath or a bird house. Depending on skill level and timings we will plan out what we can make. This will be a lovely collection of sessions, learning a range of techniques, refining skills and experimenting with relief and carved decoration.

By the third session all of your work will have been bisque fired (the first firing) ready for us to add the finishing touches. We will use a combination of glazes and oxide washes, this is a great chance for you to explore different finishes and techniques. All of your work will remain at the studio to be glaze fired. Ready to collect from the studio 3/4 weeks after the course

The perfect mix for garden lovers who would like to explore the use of clay further.

All pieces will be made and glazed across the 3 weeks, ready to collect from the studio 3/4 weeks later.
