This class is ongoing, enrollment is monthly, students are automatically enrolled every month unless student unenrolls

 

In this class students will be exploring the vessel strictly through hand building techniques. We will focus on techniques such as pinch, coil, slab, hump/slump molds, handles, spouts, lids and glazing!

 

Pinch: Create a vessel by hand using only the pinch method. Students will explore how to use their own finger prints to create volume and repetition through pinch patterns.

 

Coil: Coiling with and without a form for support. We will also be exploring the use of large and small coils and discussing the best application for both.

 

Slab: Students will create a vessel using slabs. Part of the class will be dedicated to learning the proper way to scratch and score (+making a scratch and score tool) slab rolling, gauging slab thickness, and troubleshooting any issues that may arise during the creative process.

 

Hump/slump molds: We will be using every day bowls, containers, and objects as well as foam cutouts to create unique forms. We will also discuss how to use plaster as a hump, slump, or press mold.

 

Handles, Spouts, and Lids: There will be a discussion as well as a demonstration of various ways to create handles, spouts, and lids. Students can choose to create a new form using the coil, slab, or pinch method or simply alter a previous weeks project.

 

Glazing: The last week will be spent glazing the work that students made during the course. Students will learn how to use things like wax resist, under/over glazes and dipping glazes to decorate and finish their pieces.

 

Enrollment for this class is ongoing unless otherwise specified
