Developing Imagery on Cone 6 Porcelain
with Matias Braun
$600
Skill Level: Some experience useful
In this workshop we will focus on creating interesting painterly surfaces on ceramic objects by using wax resist, stencils, incising, painting, and drawing using underglazes. We will explore wheel throwing and handbuilding techniques as ways of making functional vessels that provide perfect spaces on which to develop imagery that is unique to you and your experiences in the world. There will be a bisque and glaze firing. Some ceramics experience is preferable.
