Discover the joy of hand-building with porcelain, one of the most smooth, white, and deliciously tactile clays to work with. Join this course to discover the secrets of working with porcelain and make something you can use and enjoy at home.
Your instructor, Romanda Newman, @romandaceramics, has been hand-building with porcelain for over 10 years, making functional and sculptural ceramics that have been exhibited and sold throughout the country.
In this class, Romanda will teach you the techniques to make beautiful bowls, plates, cups, and vases just with your hands, plaster moulds, and a few basic tools. You’ll also be shown how to decorate your pieces with coloured underglazes. Your finished kiln-fired pottery will be food-safe and microwave, oven & dishwasher-safe.
You will have the opportunity to make up to 6 finished pieces with up to 6 kgs of clay. After the 4 weeks, we’ll do the final glaze firing to 1260 degrees, so you can collect your pieces 2-3 weeks later.
No experience is required. This course is limited to 6 students only. Bring a friend or come on your own and meet some new people.
You must be available on the scheduled days to complete the course.
Fees are applicable for makeup classes. A minimum of 3 participants is required for the course to go ahead.
