June 8-9 (Thurs and Fri) Diana Farris from Amaco will be giving a great workshop on Surface Decoration Techniques. She was with Pewabic Pottery decorating tiles for 5 years. You will get to explore a variety of low fire surface application techniques and materials. A multitude of glazes and underglazes will be available to workshop participants for application on (provided) bisqued tiles. The first day is spent looking at samples, and drawing and painting on tiles which are then fired overnight. The next morning is spent experimenting with slips on wet clay, and discussing the results of the glaze firing. All levels of experience are welcome. It'll run from 9-5p Th & 9-1 Fri and is $75 per person for both days. There is a list of supplies to bring. Register early because the workshop is limited to 12 and will be great for Teachers.
