Ceramics
Our adult pottery courses cover all the basic techniques such as coiling, slab methods, thrown pots and sculpting in clay. Various decorative techniques, including sgraffito, slip-painting, under glazing and glazing are taught. Course dates for Summer 2011 are found below. The courses concentrate on three-dimensional art – sculpture and pot-making, with an emphasis on technical skills development and artistic exploration. Classes are designed to be relaxing and fun, without the pressure of academic qualifications, but with all the support and educational guidance needed to develop good work and gain skills and experience with clay. Students are encouraged to experiment and to develop their own styles and techniques. For those with experience of ceramics, we can expand and develop your skills, sharing hints and tips for throwing or glazing and experimenting with new materials – paper clay, porcelain, engobes and on-glaze enamels. Whatever your prior level of experience, Open Arts aims to tailor the course to your needs.
Classes include all clay supplies, use of studio tools, glazes and firings. Studio Equipment includes Slab roller, 8 Wheels, Extruder and more.
