Instructor: Laura Hewson
In this class we will go through the steps to create a uniform set of four drinking cups, learning the tricks and tips production potters implement to create consistency in height and weight. The first two classes will be dedicated to throwing on the potter’s wheel, with a third class focused on trimming. The final class will introduce participants to dip glazing to create consistent results across your finished set.
