Sat-Sun January 18 & 19, 2025: Two Day Throwing & Extreme Handle Demonstrations.
The workshop will focus on larger than life utilitarian pottery for occasional use. We will pay attention to the details on large casseroles, pitchers, bowls, baskets and plates so they may be used for celebration and presentation.
My specialty over the years has been sectional or composite throwing where I add many pieces together to make one vessel. I have also developed a signature with the use of thrown, pulled and hand built handles. Extreme handles are my specialty.
Recent work has included gestural marks and brushwork for a tactile geological surface to the work. The maker’s marks and details of process are what I am interested in leaving in the finished work.
Although I wood fire I have made my living for the past 2 decades almost exclusively glazing and firing a carbon trap shino glaze over multiple slips in a gas fired kiln.
