Suitable for all levels
Learn the art of working with liquid clay and create your own tableware.
Over 6 weeks students will learn to create one-piece plaster molds and the science behind creating slip (liquid clay) and casting. By the end of the 6 weeks, students will have approximately 6 matching pieces to take home, the plaster mold, and all the knowledge to continue slip casting at home.
On the first class we make the form out of clay and a plaster mold. Over the following three weeks students will learn the science of slip, how to colour slip, and create multiple casts. Week 5 we will glaze or decorate our work, and week 6 will be finishing up pieces with a sanding bath, a glass of champagne and admiring everyone’s creations.
The course includes:
– 12 hours of tuition
– All material (except for stains and underglazes as there are so many colours to choose from)
– Bisque and glaze firing
– Hopefully at least 6 or so pieces to take home
– The plaster mold to keep creating the pieces.
– All the knowledge needed to continue slipcasting at home
