Introduction to Wheel Throwing

This 3-week course with Kristina provides the basics of wheel throwing. A wonderful opportunity to immerse yourself in clay and get a taste of what this art medium has to offer.

Week 1 (11 Jan) Wheel throwing (3-4 Vessels) Using the pottery wheels to make vessels

Week 2 (18 Jan) Trimming vessels that have been thrown the week before. Using tools to remove excess clay from the bases of the vessels by placing them back on the wheel. All pieces are then bisque fired in the kiln.

Week 3 (25 Jan) Decorating our vessels with coloured underglaze and then dipping them in clear glaze.

*Firing and glazing included in this workshop. Pieces will be ready to be picked up within 4 weeks
