Beginning students will learn the basic principles and techniques for manipulating clay with and without using a pottery wheel. You can make a vessel using slabs or coils, create two-dimensional relief landscapes, or sculpt forms inspired by people, animals, and architecture. You will also learn throwing, trimming, and glazing techniques with the wheel. Sheila will guide you through the techniques and help you to create projects around your interests. This session is appropriate for adults and youth aged 11 plus. All supplies are included, and you’ll leave the class with at least one finished piece.
