When: May 22-23, 2010
Where: Wild Child Arts, Monroe, Georgia
Recognized for his signature miniature teapots, during this workshop Fong will explore and demonstrate in detail the teapot form with reference to the perspective of proportions: from the large to the small and from the whimsical to the utilitarian. Through the creation of the Teapot form participants will inevitably develop skills in handling clay, acquire a better sense of craftsmanship and without doubt exercise better visual creative skills by virtue of the form. Additionally, there will be discussions with glazing through the use of the spray gun and brush layering to achieve the jewel tone and other effects. There will be ongoing in-studio discussions. There will be a tool making demonstrations. There will be a cane handle demonstrations. Examples of the artist’s actual work will be on display for use as visual references. And, if time permits, a slide presentation of some of his early work to the current. Cost Cost 250.00
