I hope this does not seem too self serving, but there are still several
places left in my workshop "Slab Forms With Colored Clays" at the Craft
Center, running from Monday June 9th through Friday June 14th. This
workshop gives very thorough coverage of a wide variety of colored clay
techniques, and includes extensive and very thorough handouts. We will work
with both oxides and mason stains, using a low/medium-range whiteware body.
We will cover coloring of clays, marbleizing, patterned clay loaf
construction, colored clay inlaying techniques, slab lamination, neriage,
and a variety of soft-slab and stiff-slab construction techniques. I have
enough students for the workshop to run, but I like a full group. Don't
worry, a full group is still only twelve participants.
As mentioned in the last post, the workshop costs $200, and room and board
in our housing units costs another $200 (kitchen facilities in all housing
units if you want to cook your own meals and save money). Please email or
phone me if you have questions. The listing of the rest of our workshops
follows. Siglinda Scarpa's tilemaking workshop is full, but all the others
still have space.
