In order to develop depth in low-fire pottery surfaces, one cannot rely on the firing process alone. The surface must be activated through mark-making and layering glazes. Participants explore these challenges by using the decorating technique of sgraffito and layering multiple translucent glazes. The course looks at pottery decoration through history and inspires students to develop their own personal motifs. Coil-building and bisque mold techniques are demonstrated.
No workshops to show.
