Description

Hello, I'm Sharon, an experienced ceramic sculpture & clay artist. I regularly host fun & informal adult pottery sessions from my pottery studio along with a small team. This 4 week throwing course is suitable for beginners. It will guide you through the basic knowledge of throwing pots on the potters wheel. You will learn how to centre & pull up your clay, practicing this each week. Working at your own pace you'll explore a different skill, such as throwing tools & different forms. We will also get the chance to explore lidded vessels and wheel altered pots. During each session there is time to self practice the skills. There is a maximum of 2 students with 1 tutor on this course, ensuring that you have hands on & verbal support throughout the course. The course is designed to practice form appose to making lots of pots. The firing of your two favourite pots from each session is included in the price. Up to a 12.5 kg bag of clay is included in the course. Additional clay is £12 per 12.5kg bag.
