Class description:
This two-day hand building workshop will dive into ceramic soap dishes in their many forms. Together we will problem solve, balance objectives, and play using basic hand building skills. I will also discuss edges, line, composition and finishing techniques I typically use in my work. This class is best paired with Open Studio in order to ensure work gets through firing cycles. Open to students with some experience or an adventurous beginner*
