This surface decoration workshop will cover the process of advanced glaze-carving techniques. Participants will be guided through illustrating a narrative design, choosing the appropriate glazes, then executing their decoration through inlay application. Demonstrations will address how to apply glaze depth wisely upon ceramic creations. Students will grasp composition and material constraints while receiving hands-on assistance to confidently practice illustrative techniques on their pottery.
Students will be responsible for bringing their own bisqueware rated for cone 6. The glaze firing of one 6”x6” piece is included in the workshop fee. If students are working with clay not purchased from BKLYN CLAY they must have it approved in advance of the workshop by emailing info@bklynclay.com . We will supply expired bisque from the hospital in case anybody forgets.
