In this workshop you will slab build a candlestick holder, adding pattern and colour to the surface using slips and sgraffito.In the first part of the workshop you will be shown the fundamental techniques required to slab build; leading you through the use of templates to create slab built pieces, rolling, sticking, and smoothing clay, focusing on creating the right sized holder for the candlestick, as well as having time to create personalised features such as handles.
In the second part of the workshop Pascale will explain the use of slips and how they differ from glazes, and introduce sgraffito. You will be taught to use coloured slips and sgraffito technique to decorate your piece. Sgraffito allows for the creation of pattern with bold colour.
You will be given a candlestick to fit your holder as well. You will leave this workshop with good introductory knowledge of ceramics, and be inspired to do more beyond the workshop!
