All in the Details: Decal Transfer, Sprig molds and Underglaze
In this 12-week class, students will learn techniques that focus on the finer details and finishing touches of functional pottery, with the idea of quality versus quantity in mind. We will be using a Low Fire ^04, Red Earthenware clay, which gives the opportunity for a wide variety of surfaces and brighter colors. Students will learn about making simple, one piece, “sprig” molds, as well as more complicated two piece press molds that will allow them to add three dimensional decorations to their work. Students will also learn about working with different textures, colored slips, commercial underglazes, waterslide ceramic decals, metallic luster, and more. This class is designed for intermediate level students with a minimum of one Basic level throwing course required.
ST9 Instructor: Nick Ramey
