In this specialized handbuilding class, students will focus on developing functional handbuilt tableware using a red clay body. We will study plates, bowls, drinking vessels, and other small functional wares for your daily food rituals. Students will develop and explore slab building techniques using bisque moulds, practice coil techniques, and intermediate pinching techniques. Using a beautiful red clay body, students will have the opportunity to expand on their clay body knowledge and build on glazing as well as simple decorating techniques. By the end of this session, students will take home a personal table setting they can utilize for many years to come.
