Throwing with Finesse: Part Two 

6 weeks, Tuesdays,  Noon – 2:00pm (Eastern)

Fee 295.00

Part 2 

In this class we will hone our skills and explore how a pot evolves and changes. Efficient throwing, using all the clay, balancing your pull with wheel speed, choking clay successfully, overhead handles and attachments that are clean, balanced and accent the form. Each student will be set up to push their current skill set beyond their current level. We will explore more complicated forms, tapping on center and integrated handles. We will incorporate textured slabs onto thrown pieces and I will share some really cool techniques I have created for throwing customized slump molds. We will increase our volumes of clay and continue our goal to use all the clay. Each week there is assignments with specific goals that will catapult your skillset.

Whether you are a seasoned beginner or intermediate to advanced potter this class will be customized to your needs. We will have online discussions (critiques), share our process and struggles, and “what if” conversations about balance, shadow, line, volume, integrated design elements and more. This is always a favorite part of Sarah’s classes.
