The Clay Lady’s Campus Studio B

In this workshop Andrew will demonstrate his throwing, altering, and trimming techniques and show how he creates complex surface designs using stamps and sprigs. On Day 1, Andrew will work on the wheel to throw, alter and trim a mug, a locking jar, and a match striker. Day 2 will focus on building final forms and surface design. Andrew will show how he uses stamps and sprigs to build layers into the surface of his pottery. Participants will get to try out several of the workshop techniques and decorate using Andrew's tools and materials. Andrew will also explain and demonstrate his finishing techniques using terra sigillata and underglaze.

Jennifer will cover all the stages of throwing, altering, and carving porcelain, including the technique of “dry-throwing”, the structural mechanics of altering, and various carving techniques.
