About this Event
Welcome to our Saturday Workshop series at Clay Club. A portion of the proceeds will go to the Kiyooka Ohe Arts Centre
This two-day workshop will allow you to hand-build a few (2-4) functional pieces on the first day, then create designs with wax on the second day. We will have a few different options of glazes to choose from.
- Day One: October 4th- hand-building functional pieces
- Day Two: October 25th- create wax resist designs and glaze pieces.
- Materials, including clay, wax, coloured glazes, and tools, will be provided.
- We will fire the pieces at the end of September (Expect to pick up your creations sometime in November).
What is Wax Resist??
Wax resist pottery is a technique where wax is used to create patterns on a ceramic piece before glazing. The wax repels the glaze, leaving the waxed areas unglazed after firing, creating a design. This method allows for intricate designs and prevents glaze from adhering to the bottom of the piece, preventing it from sticking to the kiln shelf.
