TERM 3 | HAND-BUILDING CERAMICS

Service Description

Beginners will start by learning the main hand building techniques of slab building, coiling and pinch pots. We will also discuss the design of work, including what kind of functional and sculptural forms suit the hand building process. For those with more experience, you will develop your skills through more complicated forms and surfaces.
