Here is some information on what to expect:

WHEEL THROWING

Jane will give a short demonstration on how she centres and throws clay. Please know that each potter has their own technique.

Unlimited clay available for you to use.

If you want to get a bit of a head start with the techniques, have a look at the demonstration by:

Or, if you want to get completely inspired then Florian Gatsby on Instagram

  

HANDBUILDING  

Jane suggests you have a think about what you would like to make. For example….. Coiled coffee mug, beaker, bowl, jug, vase etc.

Coming with an idea helps but do not stress, as often when you work with clay ideas morph, change and you move into a state of flow.

 

GLAZING

Jane will chat about glazing throughout the workshop. As this is a single experience your chosen pieces will need to dry, be trimmed, bisque and then finally glazed.

All of the pieces you choose to keep may be decorated on the day (weather depending), to which Jane will finish with a clear glaze.

I look forward to meeting you!
