Explore the dimensional jigsaw puzzle of teapot making during this
two-day, hands on workshop with Welsh potter, Melanie Browne. In
addition to learning new tricks and devices for making spouts, handles
bodies and lids, students will explore the proportional challenge of
making a successful teapot. Whether functional or decorative, it is all
about proportion: puzzling out the marriage of individual components.
Students will also have an opportunity to discuss and compare glazes
from across the ocean.
