Colored Clay Workshop

This workshop will explore hand-building as well as throwing techniques with colored clay. We will go through the process of wedging stains into the clay, layering the different colors and forming pieces by hand and throwing shapes on the wheel. We will then take it further by faceting, fluting and carving the surface to reveal patterns. It is a wonderfully organic process that integrates the patterned designs with the piece. The weekend will include a presentation of current colored clay work by a broad range of artists, as well as demonstrations and hands-on.
