In this class, we will spend six weeks creating functional ceramic pieces! You will build by hand using the three main types of hand-built clay construction, pinching, coiling, and slab. We will also explore Kurinuki. We will work with the glazes available in the studio and learn proper glaze procedures. We will also look at various surface decoration techniques, such as so that your pieces will be truly one of a kind!
