Workshop Description
8 week workshop With Nadia Richard’s Open to all levels, Ages 18+ Before there was the wheel…there was hand building. Join us for this eight week course of hand building basics, paying special attention to different surface design techniques. Instructor Nadia Richards will cover the three basic methods for hand building with clay: pinch, coil and slab. After crafting various pieces, the class will dive into exploring different tools to add texture and intricate patterns, using underglazes to highlight or enhance these details (or to create painted images). They'll also experiment with wax resist and carving techniques to add even more depth and creativity to their work. By the end of the eight weeks students will have an understanding of how to do basic hand building and will walk away with several pieces that they can use in their daily life. Limited open studio time and firing included in class. (Days for open studio: Tuesdays 10am-6pm, Fridays 10am-8pm, Saturdays 3-7pm). All materials provided. Ages 18+
