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.

Matias Braun is a ceramic artist, father, and surfer. Born in Madrid, New Mexico, but raised and residing in Costa Rica, Braun attended the University of Hawai'i at Manoa where he graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Ceramics. His work has been displayed nationally and internationally in numerous juried and invitational exhibitions. Matias has been featured in Ceramics Monthly as a contributor to the "Working Potter Issue" edition. This year, Matius’ work was presented in the Demerest Pottery Show’s 50th anniversary exhibition.
