Artist-in-Residence Series: Handbuilding Methods

$300 Purchase required to enroll

Handbuilders of all skill levels are invited to join Mary Roberts, our first Artist-in-Residence, for a deep dive into a range of handbuilding techniques. Mary will cover her version of the coil/pinch method, stiff slab construction, and more. Students will explore the functional and sculptural values of 3-dimensional form using handbuilding, as well as development of surface treatment and design. This is a great place to start for anyone interested in handbuilding, and it’s a next step for returning students who enjoyed Mary’s fall workshop. Don’t miss out!

What’s included:
Up to 25# of Laguna clay
Glazes, washes, underglazes, and colored slips
Students are encouraged to bring their own tools, but a variety of basic and specialty tools are available to borrow during class time.
In addition to weekly class times, students may use the studio for an additional six hours of independent practice during staffed hours and/or evening/weekend Open Studios.
