Saturday 18 April 10.30 am – 4.00 pm£95 including a welcome tea/coffee & biscuits, materials, use of equipment on the day, tutoring, firing & returning of pieces to the Haddenham Arts Centre.
Price includes the biscuit firing of all pieces and subsequent glazing in colours of your choice and final glaze firing – work will be delivered back to the Haddenham Arts Centre for collection.
Suitable for children 14+ accompanied by an adult.
You'll spend the morning of this relaxing & creative session learning how to create a piece of your own design using the coiling method - a very meditative and mindful process.
After lunch you'll go on to create two large botanical/your own design vases using the slab and sprig method – you can bring along your own botanicals (grasses, flowers etc.) from your gardens or surroundings if you wish, but I will bring along enough for everyone in any case.
This method of making with clay uses rolled slabs which are cut to size, botanicals pressed in and then vases created using a former.
The pieces can be simple or elaborate. I will show you how to attach “sprigs” to the finished vases to create extra 3D effects if required.
The whole procedure will be explained from start to finish by me and also with the aid of real-time footage on a large screen showing each step up close.
I will then take all the pieces back to my Blended Monkey studios in Upwell where, once dry, I will glaze them in your chosen colours and fire them. The pieces will be returned to the Arts Centre for collection.
The workshop is taking place at the Haddenham Arts Centre which has its own café where you can have lunch - workshop participants are entitled to a 10% discount - do pre-order when you arrive and let the staff know you are a student - or you are of course welcome to bring your own packed lunch or use facilities in the village.
