Beginners hand-building Pottery classes with Sizer Studios

By popular demand, this course has been extended and now offers you eight weeks of hand-building bliss!

Come and learn the basics of creating with clay! We will teach you three hand-building techniques (pinch, coil, slab) that you can apply to making your own masterpieces during this course (and beyond!). Previous class participants have made mugs, candle holders, bowls, planters, jugs, trinket dishes, shelves, boxes, and dinnerware! What will you make with your new skills?

You’ll learn about using forms (wrap and drape molds) and adding texture to pieces with stamps, applique and carving. You will also work with underglazes and glazes to decorate your pieces further. The firing processes (bisque and glaze firings, which are completed off-site) will be explained, as will studio processes (safety, wedging and reclaiming clay).

The first three weeks of this course contain instruction and demonstration, so please make every effort not to miss these.
