Pottery - Slab Building Using Templates
This mini 2 week course focuses on using templates to make a sculptural hollowed out slab built form.
The first week will be spent making an adapted form out of clay using templates before applying a coloured slip. The second week you will explore carving a design into your clay form.
Your work will then be bisque fired off-site, a clear glaze applied and then re-fired. It will be ready to collect from Norden Farm generally about 6-8 weeks later.
Cost includes: clay, use of tools and materials, application of a clear glaze and 2x firing of your work.
