Ceramics 1: Sculpting From Life

Weekly schedule

About this program

Learn introductory and intermediate handbuilding techniques to plan and execute sculptural works in clay that will help you discover your own unique style. Through several instructor-led assignments, you will explore methods for using different types of reference materials to inform your sculptural language. Finally, you will resolve a self-directed project that allows you to expand on these lessons in a more personal way. Surface treatments including texture, staining and washes will be discussed, as well as contrast on ceramic surfaces and a variety of finishing techniques. Tools and clay not included in course fee. You may purchase a C-3 clay ticket from Front Office. See receipt for supply list. Live model sessions on October 15 & 29. No class on November 12. Instructor: Emily Sheppard
