Have you been wanting to dabble in sculpting or just wanting to experiment with clay? This is the perfect class to get you started in the wonderful world of clay! I will guide you every step of the way. Even if you are a seasoned clay artist, this is a great class with lots of fun and easy techniques to give you that kick-start you need to apply to many other projects.
You will leave your owls with me. Once they are dry, I will bisque-fire your owls and then personally glaze them for you using an oxide with a white glaze, similar to the 3 owls shown in the photos.
This class is for you if:
- You have never worked with clay but would love an introduction to ceramics
- You want a great fun experience with your friends
- You want to walk away with some new clay techniques and skills
- You love clay
- You have worked with clay and would like to enhance your skills and techniques
I will transport the barn owls to my home studio in Vancouver, WA. I will bisque-fire them, add an oxide and a white glaze and glaze fire them. This will consist of 2 firings.
The Barn owls will need to dry completely before they go into the kiln.
