Description

Yes, you can paint ceramics! In this class, we'll be paying special attention to cold finishing techniques. "Cold finishing" refers to any type of finishing on a ceramic piece that doesn't require a kiln. I will demonstrate how to paint your piece to create dimension and depth, as well as how to hide any cracks or bumps! We will also go over beautiful effects that can be created with different materials such as buff powders, foils, and transfers. Let's expand our finishing horizons!

Laura is skilled in both pottery and sculpture. She loves teaching folks new ways of thinking about ceramics, and helping their imaginations take form. She works on her pieces from her small home shop as well as the Smithy, but loves the communal energy of our studio!
